For my reference. Thanks to Dr. Castaneda for a couple of these links. Those of you with artifacts from Polynesia may find these websites helpful.
*George Ortiz Collection - lei niho palaoa [pendant]
*Bishop Museum - lei niho palaoa [same shape and dimensions as mine and also walrus ivory]
*Bonhams Auctioneers - kupe`e palaoa [wrist ornament - has similar added elements as our pendant]
Bishop museum - fishhooks - Hawai`i
*Te Kakano - fishhook - New Zealand
*Diagram - Pa kahawai trolling hook - The Coming of the Maori, Te Rangi Hiroa
*Galerie Flak - Maori pa kahawai [not the best source, but darned if I could find a photo one almost exactly like the Beardsleys' at any place that's not in the business of selling them]
Library catalogues, NZ - 3North ~N5000 (thanks, Mallory)
