This is an American Indian horn which came to me from a collector in central Florida. It was made by a Native American from the Seminole, \u00a0Apalachee or Creek tribe. \u00a0The horn has a raised carved snake encircling the entire horn from the bottom to the top of the neck. The tip is multi ring carved and the inside is threaded for \u00a0a measuring cup or powder measure which is\u00a0screwed into the neck of the horn (like a screw tip horn). The strap is a colorful homespun piece. The horn measures 20 inches along the outside curve ( not including the screw in top ). The base is 3 1\/4 inches in diameter and shows that the wood plug was painted 3 -4 times during its use with with a aqua, red and grey colored paint.. The base plug is fastened to the horn with 10 nails or brads.<\/p>\n
