Penis Sheath2948/110
Penis sheath made from the upper part of a bird beak and partial skull. The beak is light yellow, slightly curved and has a smooth surface. Two large curved lines have been deeply carved into the top creating three arrow-like shapes pointing down the beak. Both sides of the beak have small perpendicular linear incisions creating small checkerboard-like patterns. The top of the beak’s tip has small parallel, incised grooves arranged in a row. The opening has a round woven band wrapped around the back of the beak. Two tufts of grey hair are tied on both sides of the woven ring with a plastic thread. A plastic thread is also tied at the back of the beak through two bored holes.
