FROM CARD: "WOOD. A NATION OF NATIONS 12/75. LOAN RETURNED AUG 1988."Florence Sheakley, Alan Zuboff, Ruth Demmert, and Linda Wynne made the following comments during the Tlingit Recovering Voices Community Research Visit, March 13-March 24, 2017. This object seems relatively modern and may have been made solely for trade. This object is made mostly of painted over moosehide, and the hair coming from the top of the object may be grass, while the stiff fibers could be cedar or porcupine quill. The design on this object may be a hummingbird or a raven because of the frog face on the underside of the object. The handle on the bottom may either be a tongue or just there for the wearer to hold the hat better if it is being danced.
