content: From typed card with artifacts: "'Ceremonial Objects'. These two quill-decorated objects are labeled 200334, Sioux. This is incorrect. 200334 is a Shoshone pipe and pouch, neg. # 11298. The specimens are probably Sioux, (use of quill indicates Northern, rather than Southern PLains, the color combination of red, purple, and yellow-orange is typical of Sioux pieces, as are the tufts of red horsehair attached to tinklers, when present). Until these specimens are able to be identified, they have been assigned a T-number, (T-1896). 7/25/[19]84 Lee Miller."
