I am seeking help to identify an artifact found during a recent cultural
resources survey on a historical archaeological site in southeastern
Arizona. The site appears to be a residential area related to ranching, in
which other historical artifacts suggest a 1900-1920s date.
The artifact in question is a nonferrous metal object that looks somewhat
like a bassoon or clarinet finger-key, but it is L-shaped. Its finger-key
segment measures about 3 7/8 inch long and the other segment that fits
into the instrument or other anchoring object is 4 inches long. I can send
a photo of it on request.
Any help will be appreciated,
