Description

Illustration on a wood plaque, created by incising lines into the surface and then adding red and black pigments, probably ochre and charcoal. This illustration appears to depict two people hunting birds in trees. Both people are wearing parkas. One is aiming an arrow at a bird in a tree, and the other appears to be standing on a branch under a nest with a bird in it high in a second tree. A third bird is also shown, possibly falling to the ground.
