This page is an exact copy of the "Visual arts" section of the article, with the only difference being the pictures... I'm sure something more could be added. --V2Blast (talk) 22:25, 5 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

How about adding info on the Luf boat?

Latest comment: 5 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hi, having reviewed this interesting article, I thought you might want to add some information and possibly an image of the so-called Luf-Boat at the Berlin Ethnographic Museum. There only seems to be this article in German, but probably you can translate the gist of it with Google translate. Regards, Munfarid1 (talk) 11:24, 23 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
