PreColumbian Master; Panama Gold
Note: Object Description
B: Gold ear spool with two circular ends and a central connecting tube. Both ends have a convex circle where the tube meets the circular spool ends. The outer (visible) tube appears to be connected to the interior circle of one side and the other side continues into an inner tube that fits into the exterior tube, allowing the removal of that side of the spool. Each exterior circular sheathing is simply folded over the edges. 11.3g
Note: Owner Accession
Central America, Panama, Coclé Province, Penonomé District, Coclé. Excavated by Eva and Neville Harte. Presented by Dr. and Mrs. Arthur Sackler
Note: Research Notes
(transferred to MCI for analysis July 2009)
Note: Condition Review
Good condition. The sheathing is empty, the original material may have degraded. The tubes are slightly loose on this spool, allowing some movement between the inner and outer tubes.
Note: Follow-up Notes
Special: X-adiography would be useful
