Smoothly finished, slightly curved, rectangular bone balance with a design of punctuated circles on both of the wide, flat sides. One side has four groups of four circles arranged in a diamond shape. The other side has two groups of three circles on either side of four diamond shaped groups of four circles. Each of the short, skinny ends has a hole drilled. One hole is drilled through the skinny width of the bar in the very centre. The two other holes are symmetrically placed at the ends and run obliquely from one narrow edge to the adjacent narrow edge.
236 disc shaped beads and 34 cylindrical beads of various shades of dark red, grey, white and yellow; strung on monofilament. Two spherical beads and an irregular, tabular bead are symmetrically arranged directly opposite the tied ends. Colour change and bead shape are symmetrical along the entire length. There are a few traces of red pigment, particularly on the larger beads.
Assorted turquoise stone beads with a single irregularly shaped stone pendant of a whitish-green colour. The pendant is drilled in both directions. There are 430 turquoise beads, including disc-shaped, barrel-shaped and irregularly shaped ones. There is some graduation in size and the smallest ones are closest to the tie in the monofilament, on which they are strung. Some beads have traces of red pigment.
Green and blue/green stone beads are interspersed with 18 barrel-shaped and one ellipsoid bead made of golden metal. The 134 stone beads are a mixture of disc-shaped, barrel-shaped and irregular shapes. They are arranged symmetrically on either side of the golden ellipsoid bead. The ellipsoid bead is made of two hemispheres of sheet metal while the other metal beads are rolled with a simple overlap join. Strung on monofilament.
Assorted stone beads of grey, turquoise, yellow, blue, brown and white with a single pendant bead. The pendant is rhomboidal with one broken corner and has a patch of turquoise as well as milky white areas veined with green. There is a rough symmetry in the arrangement of beads on either side of the pendant. Several beads appear to be made of shell, while one is cast metal.
Mace head composed of a short, heavy cylinder modelled with identical faces on two sides. These are separated by protuberant, round ears. White shell inlays in eyes, mouth, ears and cheek areas have drilled holes and incised details. One inlay (b) is dislodged. One ear inlay is thinner than the other three and does not have an engraved circle like the others.
Irregularly-shaped yellow shell beads alternating with 31 cylindrical, red-purple shell beads on a strand of monofilament. The yellow beads are quite porous and many have red pigment rubbed into the surface cavities. The yellow beads range in length from .7 to 2.0 and the red-purple beads range from .4 to .7cm.
Hollow golden beads of two sizes are regularly alternated with yellow, disc shaped shell beads and red-purple cylindrical shell beads and are strung on synthetic monofilament. There are 20 large and 80 small gold beads as well as 20 purple and 40 yellow shell beads. Most of the gold beads are dented and some have holes or are split at their equatorial join. Some of the shell beads have worm holes. Many of the beads have traces of red pigment in surface irregularities.
Small disc-shaped, red-purple shell beads with a brown stone pendant and six symmetrically spaced golden metal discs are strung on synthetic monofilament. The pendant is approximately bi-conical in shape with a hole drilled through the larger section. The gold discs have eccentrically placed holes and are much larger than the shell beads. The gold surface of the discs is pocked and has green and red deposits.
Variegated green and green-blue beads are symmetrically graduated by size and strung on synthetic monofilament. The largest beads, which are opposite the tie, are particularly irregular in shape. Eight thin beads of larger diameter are symmetrically interspersed among the smaller beads. Total of 321 beads.
