Description

Small kayak hunting scene, consisting of a stone base with a hunter in a kayak on top, and a seal. The kayak (part b) pegs onto the base (part a) near one end, with the peg for the seal (part d) at the other end, near the front of the long kayak. The hunter (part c) holds a harpoon in his right hand; the harpoon has a sinew cord tied to it with the other end of the cord in the hunter's left hand. The kayak (part b) has sinew straps over the top that hold the paddle in place. The somewhat oval stone base is a mottled dark grey with green hues and dark blue spots; the peg holes go right through the stone. Unsigned.
