Well actually Ben, there are thousands of different styles of makau, then multiply that by the number of island cultures in the Polynesian triangle and it goes into the tens of thousands! There are a few books about Polynesian fishhooks but Id have to be an anthropologist to be able to document and list all the kine makau styles out there! As a matter of fact, Hawaiian anthropoligists use the ancient fish hooks to date temple sites and village sites and to come up with an accurate time line of the history of Hawaii...Pretty cool , yeah? I appreciate all the aloha Ben, mahalo for checking in! For miki'oi Authentic Hawaiian Makau, check out my website! You wont find mo bettah brah! http://www.cabanillamakau.com [ Edited by: kaha ki'i 2006-01-25 12:05 ]
