An old Holland's shotgun found in TAIWAN in 1700
The city of Xinhua, Taiwan. The area was controlled by the Dutch East India Trading Company by 1636 until 1662. The Dutch started hunting Taiwan's sitka deer and it eventually became extinct, so there's a tradition of hunting on the island.This gun used in that period.
