	Hook History
		Since wood floats, the hook would probably have to be fastened to a stone or something else that was heavy enough to make it sink.
		The oldest known hooks seem to be the ones that have turned up in Czechoslovakia during the excavation of the skeletal finds from late Palaeolithic times.
		The oldest hooks that have been found in Denmark and Norway indicate that only after thousands of years were they equipped with barbs, grooves, bulges or holes to facilitate attachment of the bait and line.
