![]() However, most of the bone assemblages are not well preserved. It has been assumed that species within the deer family (Cervidae) provided the raw material for the fishhooks in the north-eastern Skagerrak region. Fishhooks can be manufactured from different osseous materials, including antler, ribs and shafts of different long bones of large ruminants (Bergsvik and David, 2015, p.208 Clausen, 2018 David, 1999, p.123). ![]() Several studies of fishhooks from these sites have been undertaken in recent years (Jonsson, 1996 Mansrud, 2017 Mansrud and Persson, 2017). BC) in Southern Norway and Western Sweden (the north-eastern Skagerrak region, Figure 1).

The Haida, according to Swanton, made a snap hook, consisting of a hoop of wood, the ends of which were held apart by a wooden peg. coast, a trawl, consisting of a series of hooks attached by leaders to a line, was used for taking certain species of fish. other regions it is probable that long poles of cane or saplings were used. Short poles or none were used by the Eskimo and x. Pacific tribes, lines of twisted bark, pine root, and kelp and other tribes lines of twisted fiber. The Eskimo used lines of knotted lengths of whalebone quill, hair, or sinew the n. Lines and poles varied like the hook with the customs of the fishermen, the habits of the fish, and the environment. This is the most complex hook known in aboriginal America. A leader of quill was attached to the hook and a bait of crab carapace was hung above the spike. Usually, however, the Eskimo hook had the upper half of its shank made of stone and the lower half of ivory, in which the unbarbed curved spike of metal was set, the parts being fastened together by lashings of split quill. Eskimo hooks consisted frequently of a shank of bone with a curved, sharpened spike of metal set in the lower end, or several spikes were set in, forming a gig. Alaskan tribes used either a simple hook of bent wood having a barb lashed to a point, or a compound hook consisting of a shank of wood, a splint of pine-root lashed at an angle of 45 to its lower end, and a simple or barbed spike of bone, wood, iron, or copper lashed or set on the outer end of the splint. The Makah of Washington have a modified form of the gorge hook, consisting of a sharpened spine of bone attached with a pine-root lash to a whalebone. The fishhook of recent times may be best studied among the x. ![]() Data on the archeology of the fish hook have been gathered from the Ohio mounds and the shell-heaps of Santa Barbara, Cal., unbarbed hooks of bone having been found on a number of Ohio sites and gorge hooks at Santa Barbara. The Mohave employed the recurved spines of certain species of cactus, which are natural hooks. The material used for hooks by the Indians was wood, bone, shell, stone, and copper. This series does not exactly represent stages in invention the evolution may have been effected by the habits of the different species of fish and their increasing wariness. Indian Fish Hooks – Starting from the simple device of attaching the bait to the end of a line, the progressive order of fish hooks used by the Indians seems to be as follows: (a) The gorge hook, a spike of bone or wood, sharpened at both ends and fastened at its middle to a line, a device used also for catching birds (b) a spike set obliquely in the end of a pliant shaft (c) the plain hook (d) the barbed hook (e) the barbed hook combined with sinker and lure.
