Editorial note
What the record supports
Cultural identification is reproduced from the museum record and is not inferred from form, pigment or fiber.
We reproduce the published culture and place fields from the museum. We do not use resemblance to identify an unrecorded object, and we do not add ceremonial meaning without an object-specific source.
