Bannerstones

In the woodlands regions of North America, stone and quartzes were materials used extensively for ritual and utilitarian items. A bannerstone likely had a practical function as a counterweight on an atlatl, a long wooden shaft with a hooked end that was used to add power to a hunter’s arm when throwing a spear. The bannerstone’s wings may have provided balance. Bannerstones are often found far from stone sources, indicating they were part of a large trade network.

Small carved stone figure. Large round head shows a sharp protruding nose, slightly bulging eye area with slits for eyes, and a slit for mouth. Ears are large hollows. The back of the head is stippled with small holes. Neck is carved with encircling lines, above bent arms with hands that join over the torso. Legs of the figure have broken off. Surface has been covered with orange mud that remains in the crevices.

Stone figure with a large, long, flat head, a shallow hole bored at top centre, above a protruding face with large ears, large prominent nose, inset bulging eyes over round cheeks, and a wide mouth above a receding chin. The body is small, carved to suggest a crouched position with knees to the front. Yellow mud has been applied over the surface and has settled thickly into crevices.

Stone figure of two human forms sitting back to back, similar in construction. Each has a large wedge shaped head with deeply carved ridges indicating hair or a headdress, above a long face with large nose, inset bulging eyes, and a small mouth carved as a slit. The body is seated with arms bent and hands on knees that are drawn up to chest at front.
