| 1 | 1970.78.15.15b | Crown Feathers | This bunch of feathers is paired with a chieftan's crown of the Shipibo-Conibo people (1970.78.15.0015A). The bundle is made of white heron and macaw wing feathers. The macaw feathers are inserted through a hole in a small piece of wood that has been hollowed out. The white heron wing feathers are placed around the piece of wood and tied to the base using green string. This type of crown is no longer made or worn among the Shipibo-Conibo. |
