(Mason. Throwing-sticks.)
Fig. 20. Unalashkan throwing-stick. It would be better to call
this form the Southern type. The noticeable features in all our
specimens are the parallel sides, the hard material, thinness, the
carving for the fingers, but above all the reappearance of the eccentric
cavity for the index finger. This cavity is not a great perforation, as
in the Point Barrow type, but an eccentric pocket, a compromise between
the Northern cavity and that of the East. Collected by Sylvanus Bailey,
at Unalashka, in 1874. Museum number, 16076.
