NMAI Abenaki Inspired Paddle Decoration
This post on the Paleoplanet forums features a beautifully carved and decorated paddle by member, Dauntless.
A closeup of the blade showcases some of the delicate etching...
It was apparently inspired by an Abenaki paddle in the outstanding collection of the American Museum of Natural History (see that post full here)
