content: Entered in the original ledger catalog as from the War Department, with no location given. Most of this collection was entered into the catalog in 1866-67, but a few items evidently found at later dates were believed to be from the War Dept and were so entered into the catalog. This is part of a series of five items entered into the catalog in 1874. A number of errors in cataloging have been found in other late entries for acquisitions received from the National Institute, and the identification of the source must be considered unreliable. However, this strand of shell wampum is consistent with the date and sources of other items in the War Dept collection.
