Description

Dinwoody Plate 71

An anthropomorphic design. Two hunters chasing an elk. The one man is not riding the elk, he is behind the animal but the artist had no other way of presenting this action. An unknown or symbolic figure appears below. The one hunter to the left appears to be an "Owl Man" also, who has his back turned. The "Owl" was a symbol of bad luck.
