Fig. 333. Smaller implement of the same character. The head of walrus ivory and the short 

 pine handle show corresponding perforations, serving to connect both parts by means 

 of raw-hide ligatures (Nunivak Island). 



Fig. 334. Hoe made of the shoulder-blade of a buffalo, and bound with raw-hide thongs to the 

 shorter flat part of a hook-shaped curved handle of ash- wood. A pad of dressed 

 skin is placed between the blade and the corresponding part of the handle 

 (Arickarecs, Fort Berthold, Dakota Territory).

HAFTED STONE AND BONE TOOLS. 



Fig. 335. Implement marked &quot;reaping-hook.&quot; It consists of the right lower jaw of an 

 antelope, around which is bent a sapling forming the handle. Its two ends are 

 bound together by a strip of bark. The jaw is further secured to the handle by a 

 thong of raw-hide (Caddoes, Indian Territory). 



Fig. 336. Small celt-shaped adze of argillite, resting against a shoulder at the extremity of a 

 forked handle, the thinner branch of which, being held in the right hand, doubtless 

 served to guide the implement, while the thicker part of the handle was grasped by 

 the left. The stone blade is held in place by a cord of twisted sinew. The tool is 

 said to have been employed in finishing the inside of canoes, thus combining the 

 characters of an adze and a scraper (Natives of Vancouver s Island). Other 

 methods of hafting adzes are exemplified by Figs. 70 and 71 on page 1U.
