content: From card: "Thin flat, ovoid section of hardwood, with sharpened ends and beveled edges at sides. Painted over all with a flat vermillion color ochre, over which are designs in white paint - straight lines, curved lines and V-shapes in parallel. Also entirely covering one flat surface are evenly spaced punctations, while on opposite flat surface are two zigzag cross-hachured line figures extending the full length of the bull roarer. Perforated near one end for cord, only a short section of which remains. "Used to assemble the group and in some of their dances." George R. Moule."
