A fishing basket [a] with lid [b] and rope [c]. The basket has a circular rim and square base. Very thin, flat strips of bamboo are woven across wider vertical strips to comprise the basket's main body. The weave is close, with only small gaps. The bottom of the basket is woven from wider bamboo strips, in a perpendicular fashion. Two thicker pieces of bamboo form an X-shaped base. The basket has four cylindrical feet, one at each corner. A thin strip extends from the base of each foot, and is woven into the basket so as to attach it. The rim of the basket is made from two larger, horizontal strips of bamboo that wrap all the way around. They are secured by groups of three thinner vertical strips staggered at 2-2.5 centimetre intervals. A circular piece of wood with a cut out centre is secured to the inner rim of the basket by four small nails. The top of the wood is covered with bamboo strips, which have been woven in a chevron pattern. The lid of the basket is small, flat, and circular in shape. It is made from a piece of wood, and is covered with bamboo strips which have been woven in a chevron pattern. The handle of the lid is a thin, straight block of bamboo with downward curved ends. It extends slightly past the base of the lid on both sides, and is secured through the bottom by three small nails. There is a small hole in one side of the handle. The lid was previously attached to the body of the basket via a braided, purple rope, however all three pieces are now separate. The basket and lid are both covered in a clear lacquer.

A fishing basket with a round rim and square base. The basket is woven from thin, flat strips of bamboo about half a centimetre wide. The strips are lighter in the centre and darker on the edges, and plaited in a diagonal, criss-crossing pattern which continues until the rim of the basket. The weave is open, with centimetre large gaps between the strips. The rim is braided from multiple strips, and approximately two centimetres wide. At the bottom centre of the basket, two thicker pieces of bamboo are crossed in an X shape. The rim of the basket is a braided band od the same

Four interlocking loops overtop and around cylinder. Inside of the hat, there is a loosely woven band to fit on a head.

Grass Sample. Original field bag lists, "Grass Sample No. 35/Swanson." Species information is also written on the bag, and is stored with the material. No additional field documentation has been located for this sample. (David Hunt, 05/26/2011)

One bag of grass sample. Previous tag in a separate bag lists as "45-KI-8/267"(crossed out) and in renumbers artifacts as "45-KI-8/3-2/#329?". Field Catalog Form 329 lists the provenience as Unit 3-2 and describes artifacts as: "2 dung, 3 grass, 29 pieces bone." To date, only the dung and grass sample have been found. Artifacts are associated with Level Bag. NOTE: The original number for this object is unknown. We presume the object was given #329 because the Field Catalog Form says the only dung and grass from Unit 3-2 is #329. We have assigned the grass and dung samples this arbitrary catalog number. I.
