content: From card: "This consists of a calf skin bag which contains a bone wrapped in rawhide. Fr. Peter J. Powell says this is not a "medicine pipe" or sacred pipe per se. Rather it is an early form of Cheyenne man's pipe, favored for use on the war path [sic], and fashioned from the leg bone of a deer or antelope. Wrapped in sinew it is rubbed with sacred red paint, the life color. 5-8-1989".
