- Object description
Skaft med snidat kvinnohuvud och bröst.
"Chiefs and a number of others ate with wooden spoons and mussel-shells, but the majority used folded leaves. Frequently however, and even when some had sores or were sick, one after the other would eat with the same spoon and from the same plate."
"They were also supposed to lick the plate and the spoons. If a man was not married he was not allowed tpo lick the plate, for then the others would say: 'But you have not bought the plate, you may not lick it'. The same applied to the spoon if it did not belong to the eater". Laman 1953:60.
