Carving, Stone1991-103/1

Small stone animal figure, carved from soft soapstone. Animal has carved ears with ear holes, eyes, nostrils, and open mouth. Body has bent forelimbs with feet, 6 ribs, backbone, and rudimentary hindlimbs which are cut off; the bottom of the sculpture is very flat (and might have been sawn). It was suggested by the donor that it had come from a ceremonial pipe.(?) Skeletal carving style (showing backbone and ribs) places it with other known stone sculpture from the same location (some dates to 1500 B.C.) RKW. Sculpture is scratched, nicked and gouged: Left ribcage, right ribcage, left shoulder and forearm, lower jaw. - S. Hood 3/21/2006 Fide donor: found by a family member on a farm on Avon Allen Road, 3 miles north of Burlington, WA prior to 1918 (ca. 1910).
