Bull-Roarer

A wooden bullroarer covered in red ochre. There is very distinct etching on the front and back. The front has four repetitions of the same design. A set of around five or six slightly curved lines curve inwards around five to three columns of dots. A set of five or six slightly curved lines curve upwards around these dot columns. There is a carved hole on the right side and around four horizontal lines of dots that extend to the aforementioned design. On the back, the same design repeats five times but with less dot columns inside the lines.

“Kangaroo totem.” (Catalog Card)

The collector, J.T. Huston, incorrectly spelled the native name of this object as peeta.
