Footed arrow consisting of a wooden and antler shaft, a copper arrowhead, and no fletchings. Its nock end is oblong and has about a centimeter of wrapped sinew on the shaft above it. The other end has a both a hole and a slit cut into it lengthwise to facilitate the hafting of the antler component. It is also wrapped with sinew. There is a depression near the nock end where fletchings would have previously been attached. The antler component is inserted into the hole of the wooden part and is attached to the arrowhead by a socketed tang. The arrowhead is almost pentagonal in shape.
Toy, called an ajajaq, made out of what may be petrified wood? The object has a long, thin, rounded neck sitting upon a wider mid-area with a single, thick 'shoulder.' The mid-area narrows toward a flaring base. Many small holes have been bored through each of the object’s surfaces at regular intervals. A long, thin piece of sinew is tied through two of the holes in the centre back of the object and hangs loosely.
Small, spoon-shaped tool. The flat 'blade' and shaft are made of folded metal. The metal end is long and shaped like a drop, with a pointed tip. The handle of the piece is wood, broken with a portion missing, connected to the metal by sinew wrapping.
Bundle of sinew, bunched together. The object is a single piece, thick and cohesive at one end, separating into many strands toward the other end.

Jug used for pouring chicha. The jug has a rounded body and the neck is shaped into a human-like figure. The figure has small, thin protruding legs as well as protruding arms with hands that hold two mugs and a bottle-shaped object. Around the figure’s neck is a scarf, with ends decorated with incised lines. The face is small, and topped with a wide hat with ear flaps. The top of the figure’s head is hollow and serves as the jug’s lip. A handle is connected to the jug at its shoulder and figure’s middle back. The body of the pot is covered with skin that is tied on with sinew. Sinew also wraps around the jug’s handle, and a braid of sinew spans between the handle and the figure’s neck.
