History section

The article says the people used to "hunt fish, notably porpoise", which is a mistake since porpoises are not fish but marine mammals. I haven't changed the statement because I don't know whether it should say that they used their canoes for fishing and hunting porpoise, or whether they just hunted porpoise.

I've made the change. Good catch! (excuse the pun) Verne Equinox (talk) 00:06, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
