« Four specimens which do not belong in this section are described here for convenience sake, since they do not readily fit into other sections either. One specimen is a crudely shaped piece of curved wood which is described as a hook for drying clothes in a tent. It has two suspension holes at the proximal end (fig. 9d). »

« Quatre spécimens ne s’intégrant pas à cette section sont décrits ici pour des raisons pratiques, puisqu’ils n’entrent pas aisément dans d’autres catégories. Notre échantillon est une pièce courbée en bois grossièrement taillée, décrite comme un crochet pour sécher les vêtements dans une tente. Elle a deux trous de suspension au niveau de l’extrémité proximale (fig. 9d). »
