Bi-pointed stone head club. The polished stone head tapers at centre and has a hole drilled on one side. It is attached to a handle by inserting the stick into the hole, and then further securing it by wrapping a length of skin around the stone head followed by the shaft. The stick is covered by skin, which is stitched together with hair along one side. It is wrapped with beads in three sections: white, red, white; in between two pieces of red fabric. The end has two short leather tassels and an ornament with a white and a red bed, and hair wrapped in red fabric.
