Net Weight, Ground Stone45SK59B/611

Unmodified elongate, smooth river pebble. Two wooden splints are attached along the long axis by cedar bark bindings. Illustrated in Munsell 1976. P. 121, Plate XII. The catalog number was assigned according to the archaeological site number. This net weight was treated with polythylene glycol in the manner described by Seborg (1962). Soil matrix was removed via a fine spray of water. Specimens were then soaked in ethanol for 2 days to reduce trapped water. After removal from the ethanol bath, specimens were soaked in a 2:1 aqueous solution of 1,000 molecular weight polyethylene glycol for 2 to 4 days. After this treatment, specimens were placed on wire racks to dry for approximately two weeks. Four years later, the specimens had dried out and were treated again. The treatment has stained and darkened this specimen. Placed on exhibit "Reaching Home" featuring salmon photographs by Natalie Fobes, July, 11, 1995. Returned to Archaeology Lab, February 6, 1996.
