"Bows and arrows collected from the Pomo are nearly non-existant in museum collections. This is probably the only set from Cache Creek, and one of only a half dozen or so sets from the Pomo extant. Arrow with no point, fletched possibly with goose feathers, native red pigment under fletching and shaft possibly mock orange." (Craig Bates, 7/91)
Note: Arrows not found at warehouse. (2 found, 2 missing?) Possibly in the gallery, not yet verified. (CM, 11/91)
