label: Notes
content: Anthropology catalogue ledger book lists Major William Rich as collector as well. 1874 collection date is in question, as that is the date of donation, not necessarily of collection. Object may well have been collected by Rich when he was on the U.S. Exploring Expedition of 1838 - 1842.
