Was asked today, as an icebreaker, to share what I was currently obsessed with.
My answer: The design and function of these wooden (Pacific) halibut hooks that have used by the communities of the northwest coast of the US for thousands of years: https://hakaimagazine.com/features/the-halibut-hook-revival/
I went to see these examples, from the Haida, at the Museum of Anthropology at UBC, yesterday.
