This is a very accurate replica of one of Ishi's hunting arrows taken from Grizzly Bear's Hiding Place camp on Deer Creek CA in 1908 by Guide Harry Keefer and is now housed at the California State Indian Museum in Sacramento. The point is made from window pane glass like Ishi's original and made exact as possible to the original. It is glued with pitch and lashed with sinew in the way that Ishi did his wrappings. The main shaft is syringa and the 8 1/8" foreshaft is made of service berry and glued into its nock with pitch. Dark blue pigment and red earth ochre are used to copy Ishi's arrow crest. Feathers and point are lashed with deer sinew. The original arrow are turkey vulture feathers but on this arrow I used feathering that looked very similar. This arrow is has written on it which museum it is from and signed. I will ship this in a sturdy container. |
