Ornament1947.575

The catalogue card states, Fine ivory tusk-shaped ornament,...carved with two copulating creatures, probably a seal facing away from point and a man facing towards it. However the shape of the object suggests it is a spoon handle as below the human face a recess has been cut where the bowl of the spoon could be attached. The reverse side of the handle, below the human feet appears to have been broken, having sharper edges than the rest of the object. This is consistent with the idea that it was at one time a spoon handle. Furthermore the creatures do not appear to be copulating, and the animal is more reminiscent of a bear than a seal (G.Crowther).; Good

Tool1922.1171

A straight adze made from an old file with a D-shaped wooden handle lashed on with cedar bark. The blade is still fairly sharp, and it appears the metal file may have been moved along the length of the adze as it required sharpening. The end of the handle is slightly flared as if it has been struck with a hammer.; Good
