Weapons of various kinds were similarly used and probably had kindred signifi- cance. In prehistoric times long knives of stone, master- pieces of the chipping art, seem to have been a favorite form of ceremonial weapon, and their use still continues among some of the Pacific slope tribes, especially in Cali- fornia. Batons used in mark- ing time are probably without particular significance as em- blems. Among the Kwakiutl and other tribes the club- shaped batons, carved to rep- resent various animals, are used by the leaders in cere- monial dances and serve for beating time. Consult Boas in Rep.
