RARE QUIVER WITH NINE METAL-TIPPED ARROWSSoutheastern Woodlands Culture
16th/17th Century
Eastern Texas, Western Louisiana
This is an outstanding example of a buffalo hide quiver containing nine wooden arrows with metal tips. The arrowheads are French trade points and were probably traded to the indigenous Native Americans in what are now Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma. The French settlers occupied Louisiana and the adjacent areas for several hundred years and traded with the local Indians throughout this time period. The quiver was most likely made by the indigenous people, using leather from the abundant American bison. During this time the Caddo, or Kadohadacho, Wichita, Waco, Hasinai, Quapaw, Tawakoni, Natchitoches, Adia and Eyeish tribes had been present in the area for hundreds of years. This exceptional item is extremely rare and of museum quality. The quiver measures 28 inches long, with each arrow measuring approximately 26 inches.
