Time Period

Description
This
gorget
of
marine
shell
has been
restored
from
three
fragments
.
It
is
a
sandal-sole
type
; the
shape
is
similar
to the
sole
of a
shoe
or
sandal
,
although
it
is
not
flat
, but
rather
retains
the
curvature
of the
shell
from
which
it
was
cut
.
One
small
section
is
missing
and has been
filled
in with
wax
. There are
three
holes
drilled
through
the
gorget
.
One
is
in the
approximate
center
, and
two
are
close
together
near
the
wider
end
.
It
is
white
in
color
with
some
areas
of
yellowish
red
,
especially
on the
exterior
surface
. This
piece
is
from
Glacial
Kame
Culture
. The
Glacial
Kame
people
are
noted
for their
emphasis
on
ceremony
, but their
daily
lives
were
much
like
those of
other
Archaic
cultures
. They
hunted
with
spears
aided
by
spear
throwers
.
Deer
, their
major
source
of
meat
, also
provided
antler
tines
that were
made
into
tools
for
pressure
flaking
flint
knives
and
spear
points
, or into
harpoons
for
fishing
.
Deer
leg
bones
were
cut
and
ground
into
sharp-pointed
awls
for
sewing
and
basket
making
.
Slate
and
coal
from
glacial
deposits
were
made
into
ornaments
,
perhaps
for "
everyday
"
use
.
