Papua New Guinea Food Hook April River

This is a fabulous Old Papua New Guinea Suspension Hook from the April River Region, Papua New Guinea. Hooks has both utilitarian and ceremonial functions, and are suspended from the rafters by a cord, and they are used to safeguard food, clothing, and other items, which are placed in baskets or string bags. These bags are hung from the hook-shaped prongs at the base to keep them out of reach of vermin. Household suspension hooks were also used to contact spirits about more minor matters. This is a wonderful suspension hook, and would be a wonderful addition to your home or collection.
