Ancient America: Northwest Coast Woodworking Tools - 0 views

  • To split the cedar into planks which could be used for building houses or boxes, a small cut was made in the log. Wedges of bone or antler were then inserted into the cut and pounded in with a maul. Using wedges of graded sizes, the log was then split into planks.
  • The people made two basic kinds of stone hammers: the hand maul in which the handle or grip was carved into the stone and the stone hammer which had a wooden handle. Shown below are some of the different stone hammers and mauls which are on display at the Royal British Columbia Museum.
