TrapIa32

Roughly cylindrical woven trap. Trap slopes in gently at the shoulder each vertical strip terminating in a knob of thick dimensions at the upper lip. A coconut shell half is fitted into the upper end and is secured with two narrow strips of bamboo (?). Three ends of these strips are incorporated (at equidistance) into the main body. The loose fourth end is single-knotted to the other strip above the shell. Inside the trap is a conically shaped structure incorporated into the trap's main body and terminating two-thirds of the way up the trap's length in vertical, pointed bamboo (?) slats. A similarly shaped, but shorter and less funnel-like structure is located within the trap's lower edge. A single strip of bamboo (?) is incorporated into the trap and wound around itself, thus forming a handle.
