content: Stored with the Tehuelche collections. This could have been used in, or have been an exhibit prop from, the old Tehuelche mannequin group, "Family Group of the Tehuelche Indians". Various versions of this group were on display for a number of years, including finally in NMNH Exhibit Hall 11, Case 53. The majority, if not all of the artifacts on the mannequins came from the John Bell Hatcher collections. You can see a photo of one version online: Smithsonian Institution Archives, Acc. 12-492, Image No. SIA2012-2807, https://siarchives.si.edu/collections/siris_arc_367782 . This may have been used as a headband on one of the mannequins? Compare to E178406C.
