[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 3357623, member: 301"][ATTACH=full]300236[/ATTACH] I'm still certain that the pole in question is loosely based on photo's of the W.Seaweed grave pole at the Namgis site at Alert bay. The bears head at the bottom...should never be there ...and would not be if a 1st Nations carver made the pole... "and some folks might say the same about me." Yes, Steve !!!....I would !!! "I think both Komo and I would say that this item shows a number of features that suggest a non-native origin, and few that point to a native source." & that's where [USER=55]@all_fakes[/USER] expertise complements mine, to arrive at the same conclusions..![/QUOTE]
