Toggle harpoons are the foundation of any Eskimo artifact collection.  This is an excellent example of an early large hunting harpoon, its size makes me think it was designed for hunting large marine mammals like Walrus or small whales like the Beluga.  Centuries of age. St. Lawrence Island artifact.   Last photo is on a 1" x 1" grid for reference.  Please look at my other Alaskan Artifacts.
