Rattle3051/9

Plain wooden rattle. The rattle’s head is made of two rounded, oblong pieces of deeply concave wood, hollowed on the inside, attached to each other on both long edges by strands of plant fibre (cedar root?), threaded through holes bored in the wood. The head is undecorated. Inside are noisemakers, possibly seeds. The handle is long, thin, and cylindrical, made of two similarly sized and shaped pieces of wood carved to fit together, hollow on the inside and held together by three metal nails. A small tuft of cotton thread is attached around the bottom nail on both sides. A decorative jog has been created in the connection point between the two pieces of wood on both sides of the handle.
