Stone skin dresser or scraper.* Fide donor GTE: Stone skin dresser. Skin scrapers are found in great abundance about old camps and former living places. They are of various sizes and material. They were of the chipped basalt used for arrow and spear blades; chipped to convenient shape, or of sections of quartzite pebbles split along one face and chipped as required. Some of these were used as hand implements for scraping or softening the skin of the animals of the country, for articles of clothing, while others likewise used were set in the split end of short wood handles and lashed securely by means of hide, root or sinew. They are still used. *Information is from the original accession ledger.

Stone pendant.* Fide donor GTE: Stone pendant, hole in end, personal or dress ornament, dug up near Lytton. Numerous small ornaments of stone, some rudely carved, others simply shaped, with a hole through one end, of elk, bear and other teeth, of bits of copper, are found more particularly in graves. These were probably used as pendants or attached to articles of dress. *Information is from the original accession ledger.

Piece of black basaltic rock.* Fide donor GTE: Piece of basalt, chipped. Pieces of the black basalt from Cash Creek for making chipped implements. *Information is from the original accession ledger.

Sandstone arrow shaft smoother.* Fide donor GTE: Sandstone arrow shaft smoother (portion of). These are found on the sites of old villages and camping grounds. Oblong, half cylinder grooved lengthwise along the flat surface of a very coarse sandstone. In pairs were used as arrow shaft smoothers, the shaft being worked down by its passage along the groove. *Information is from the original accession ledger.

Jade celt or chisel.* Fide donor GTE: Jade chisel, mottled green showing cutting grooves. Jade, serpentine and other tough, fine grained stones were used for making celts, chisels and adzes for all wood working and for cutting and dressing skins. Boulders cut in two, smoothed on one surface and grooved, are found on old village sites and camping places. These are most always of greenstone, of jade and serpentine. And when they occur in many flat worked pieces of a coarse silicious sandstone with one or more beveled edges which just fit the deeper grooves in the boulders which would seem to indicate very clearly that these were the knives or saws by means of which the boulders were cut in convenient sized pieces to be worked on: the slightly concave grindstones into tools. The people of the present day have little or no knowledge of this art or manufacture. The grooves show a convex a flat or a concave goove along the bottom but more often is the convex surface apparent. Some of the tools thus cut are finished throughout their length while others are rough splinters merely brought to a cutting edge. In most of the celts and chisels, one or more grooves are plainly visible where the section was cut from the stock piece. Greenstone was universally used for cutting tools and in the following catalogued specimens (2882-2898) the term jade is used to describe those that from their weight and hardness would appear to be of that mineral, although a chemical analysis would be necessary to determine their material structure. *Information is from the original accession ledger.

Grindstone.* Fide donor GTE: Portion of a grindstone of a fine silicious sandstone, slightly concave face. It is very conclusively established that jade and other fine grained celts were worked down and sharpened upon these stones, which are found about old living and camping sites together with the sandstone saws and partly cut boulders, and an examination of jade and other celts shows almost invariably a corresponding convex side and cutting surface. These grindstones from their brittleness are seldom found in large slabs, but more in broken sections which are often smoothed on both flattened faces and sometimes along the edges. *Information is from the original accession ledger.
