From of a collection of ten wood or cane arrow-heads. One head, Am1997,Q.1264.j has the word Chucunaque written on it. It is likely, based on this provenance, that this collection is formed either from duplicate material from the 1924,0619.xx collection donated by Lady Richmond Brown and F. A. Mitchell Hedges, or corresponds with missing material from that collection, which includes a number of arrows.
