- Description
- Men’s paddle carved from cedar wood. The shaft is flattened with a "T" style grip mortised at top The blade is flat with one side of the tip missing. There are other cracks in the blade.
- Object History
- Style of blade indicates it is a man’s paddle, for everyday use (see Barnett 1955:116). Anthropologist Homer Barnett notes: “Paddles were made of yellow cedar, yew, and maple. Those of maple and cedar were painted, the man’s being black and the woman’s red. A smoky pitch fire and oil gave an impenetrable black (116). Men’s paddles had a crutch or crosspiece handle – either one piece or doweled on. There were different shapes of paddles for women, steering, sealing and night hunting.
