Adze Blade, StoneX-97

Green adze blade. According to accession data, this artifact was recovered from the Allyn IV site by Mr. Buding who lived on the property. Mr. Buding apparently donated this artifact to the Burke Musuem just after John Winterhouse surveyed the site. A description of the Allyn area can be found in, "A Report on An Archaeological Survey on Lower Puget Sound" by John Winterhouse, Jr., 1948 (See Burke Archives or UW Manuscripts and Archives Division). However, the Allyn IV site is not mentioned in his report. LSP, 1/23/96. From Ledger: Adze, stone (serpentine) Collected By Fred Buding, received by John Winterhouse.
