Fly Fishing EBook
More than 2,000 years ago, fishermen noticed insects that were eaten by the fish near the water's surface. They fashioned rough imitations of those insects on primitive hooks and began catching fish. That was the beginning of a sport. The Fly-fishing technique - from finding fish hideouts to understanding the lifecycles of the different insects they eat, along with the other complexities have fascinated fly fishers for thousands of years. To become proficient in the art, continual fine-tuning is required in addition to studying much about how to select your flies, how to adapt and blend the various materials used in the construction of a fly, how to construct a fly using defined rules in accordance with the state of the sky, the color of the water and the peculiar habits of the fish in different rivers.
If you are thinking fly-fishing is simply the pursuit of fish, you cannot be more wrong. Fly-fishing is as much the study of entomology, ecosystems, water dynamics, and ichthyology as it is the study of engineering - the sport's intricate reel mechanisms, the physical laws of motion, velocity, and aerodynamics.

Weapons & Hunting

ARROWHEAD - The pointed tip of an arrow. If the means of propulsion cannot
with certainty be identified as a bow, the term projectile point is more
properly used. Arrowheads are sometimes mistakenly referred to as "birdpoints"
by native American artifact collectors. Larger points used for spears and
knives are often mistakenly referred to as arrowheads. Typically 1.5" or
shorter in length, .5" or less in width for flint arrowheads. BIRDPOINT - Collector slang for arrow point. A fallacy caused from the belief
that small arrow points were used only for the taking of small game due to their small size.

Jewelry

Hudson Bay Company added beads as part of their standard trading commodity. Over the course of 300 years, the Hudson Bay Company traded with trappers and middlemen, who in turn supplied the northwest frontier with beads. Through the fur trade, glass beads had a significant effect on First Nation life. The availability of these small beads, along with the introduction of trade cloth and steel needles led to the decline of age-old decorative techniques, including quillwork. Beadwork rose to become the predominant craft. This information comes from The history of beads by Ray McCallum.

Tools

Bone awls or perforators are found at most archaeological sites and were in use throughout all prehistoric periods. They were used for punching holes in skins or leather for sewing garments or other articles of clothing. Bone awls could be used for perforating most softer materials and many of them were probably also used in the manufacture of basketry, matting, or similar woven materials. As a consequence of usage, the awls became highly polished, not only from handling the awl but from contact with the working material.
