| Description | Bunch of 9 twigs tied together with dyed yucca cord. The twigs approximately two feet long (2 broken) are bound with sinew near each end, apparently to hold feathers in place. One twig has attached to it by yucca cord a small object made of sinew, cord, and twigs about 4" long, probably representing a human, and evidently used in ceremonials. |
