Twelve rush fragments, and two cedar wood fragments, found in a bag marked "45-KI-7 pit 2 cordage-matting etc. 7/21/54 AM Reece" This material is from Shelter 7A in Whiskey Dick Creek. According to Swanson (1956, 1962), one pit (pit #1) was excavated. This material, from pit #2, was never mentioned in any notes or reports. There were no human remains found in this bag when it was located at the Burke Museum in 1995. It was, therefore, not considered grave goods. E. Scharf 7/31/95

Item does not seem to match the information on Basketry Card. There are notably no handles present, nor any obvious bottom pieces. Perhaps handles have been seperated and are unnumbered in another drawer. Item appears to be cedar bark and limb twined basket fragment with rim. Basketry Card:
Tall pole with carved and painted figures. Figures from top to bottom are: the harpooner, with a whale's dorsal fin in each hand; the second-ranked man in the whaling crew, who holds a harpoon; the shaman, who wears a frontlet and holds a rattle and a wand (and on his tongue is painted the head of a lightning serpent); Puk-ubs (whaler returned from drowing); and a grey whale, held up by Puk-ubs. The eyes and teeth on the shaman's face are in bronze. (The tip of the harpoon was replaced in 2024.)
