Whistle25.0/267
In this hamatsa whistle the three different voices are produced by three separate cylindrical whistles bound together so that their mouthpieces join and their barrels radiate out in a fan-like configuration. This is another example of the variety of whistles used in the Tseyka. (Holm, Crooked Beak of Heaven, 1972)

Whistle25.0/260
Tlasula whistles and horns vary in size from small squeakers held in the dancer's mouth or built into the mask to rather large instruments nearly a yard in length. This horn, one of a pair in the Burke Museum collection, is about average in size. The plain brown cedar is decorated with an unpainted relief representing raven. The figure is highly conventionalized and closely resembles the formline surface decorations of the northern coastal artists. (Holm, Crooked Beak of Heaven, 1972)
