inches, butt 7.25 inches; ends, haft slightly domed, lug pentagonal, per- 
forated, butt highly domed. 
Ornament: 2 units, (1) 24 inches transverse band-and-zigzag, P 31474. 
(11) 16inches longitudinal band-and-zigzag, second unit marked 
by straps of basketry at ends and middle. These bands pjate xin, 58;

verse elements, these bordered by plain zigzag. Haft end: Beginning 1 inch 
from end at point where flange ceases, sinistral spiral zigzag bordered by 
distinct bands of 4 complete turns in 17 inches to transverse strap of 2 broad 
zigzags; beginning at this strap same spiral continues for a half turn in 3 
inches to a similar strap, and this is paralleled by a similar spiral diametri- 
cally opposite; above second strap 2 dextral spirals making a half turn in 3 
inches and not articulating with former spirals. All of these spirals show 
leaves attached right and left at intervals of about 4 inches, which suggest 
application of a vine. Longitudinal stripes consisting of single diagonal with 
strongly marked outer bands recur at irregular intervals. The haft unit of 
decoration is crowded with human and animal figures which interrupt the 
conventional designs. ‘The two animal figures are clearly turtles. Of the 
human figures, 2 are grouped, 5 appear independently; all are drawn with their 
feet toward the haft of the club, except in a single instance; in every case the 
arms are represented extended from the body at the elbows.
