Bison scapulae with scapular spine and the ridge on the posterior border partly or completely removed; cutting edge may be rounded or square, and often shows signs of use after a jagged break had developed. All of these pieces have been chopped through at the neck so as to remove the glenoid cavity. There are occasionally more or less circular worn areas on the coastal surface of the neck which seem to be the result of the end of the handle rubbing against the bone. Miniature (fig. 51); 2 specimens. One made from a deer, the other from a dog scapula; both have the glenoid cavity removed by cutting through the neck of the bone.
