Because the Indians of the Northwest coast ate fish as a staple food source, many of their tools revolved around the practice of fishing.

In particular, whaling peoples, such as the Makah Indians, used harpoons tipped with mussel shells, although similar harpoons were used by nonwhaling peoples as well. In addition, a common practice was to use fishing hooks made of bone, while fishing traps made of wood were also used. The hunters in most Northwestern tribes used wooden bows and arrows tipped with sharpened stone for long-distance capture. In addition, knives were fashioned out of stone for skinning animals or hunting small game.

Trapping culture also was very prominent, and so wooden snares were commonly used. Select basic ads. Create a personalised ads profile. Select personalised ads.
