Thought I'd share. Historic canoes are so interesting!

The one picture of the bow looks like it has an eye!

Old dugout canoe

It has square nails in it the design would indicate that it was made by Europeans with steel tools instead of native with fire and rock.

Interesting but most likely not that old.
