Excerpt from Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History, 1908, Vol. 1 When a piece of rush was used and twisted in this manner, and allowed to dry, it was generally stiff enough to support the feather in the required position. When this was not the case, or when a cord of other vegetable fibre lacking the required stiffness, or cotton, was employed, a second piece was frequently added, which was attached in one of the two ways shown in Fig. 1, c. It was either passed between the two parts of the first cord, just above the quill or around the shaft, just below the knot The ends were then brought up and twisted together, forming the third cord, and the three were braided, as in Fig. 1, d.
