Vintage hand crafted Bone Harpoon Barb - ancient artifact fishing gear
Age and origin are unknown but this was obviously made and used before they had metal pointswhich leads me to think it might be Inuit / Eskimo or possibly some other primitive culture
I reckon it must be approximately 300 years old and the tip was likely broken off in use ?
Item is 4 inches in length - just over 1 inch wide - just under a half inch thick - Natural Bone
Please examine photos carefully... for condition and ask any questions as item is sold AS IS & NOT Returnable
