When I first saw this from the side, I thought it was a canoe as it is quite large. In fact, it is a food bowl from the South Pacific and dates back to the late 1800s. It holds around 300 gallons and would have been used to serve food at communal events.
With no refrigeration and all of those insects around, this would have greatly helped with my diet, as I ain't eating from it 😁😁.
