content: A467650-E is written on the squash knife, faunal fragment, and piece of paper in the container with the shell beads. The catalog card does not specify A467650E; it only has A467650. These items are neither listed on the catalog card nor the accession data catalog. There are other items that were found with A467650 followed by a letter written on them in the collection that neither fit the list of items on the catalog card nor fit that on the accession data catalog. These items did not have an EMu entry at the time. They have now been cataloged; see A467650-1 to A467650-4. It is believed that these items are not related to burials because other items that were not cataloged (see A467650-1 to A467650-2) came from non-burial contexts. In addition, the catalog card and accession data catalog does not list these types of items. A squash knife made from a faunal scapula, faunal fragment, and 2 thick, white shell beads.
