Stone BeadsE2565-0

CARD ORIGINALLY IDENTIFIED THIS AS "POLISHED MINERAL ORNAMENTS (2 PIECES)". ADDED TO CARD REMARKS LATER (?): "REDDISH-YELLOW COLORED CYLINDRICAL STONE BEAD."Attributed to U.S. Exploring Expedition/Wilkes collection on the catalogue card, however Jane Walsh doubts that attribution. Card calls it "N.W. Coast of America", however it resembles magnesite stone beads in use in California.

DollE10716-0

FROM CARD: "MADE BY ?CHIMAKUM* INDIAN GIRL. THIS ALSO MIGHT BE THE HUNA A GROUP OF THE TLINKIT, BUT AREA IS NOT THEIRS."Collector/donor is unlisted for this object. Speculatively, it might be from George Gibbs, since material from him was being catalogued around the same time. Also speculatively, the location is given as "Pt. Forward", Washington Territory. This is possibly a misreading of Port Townsend??
