Julumuchzel
Ceremonial rattle ("Julumuchzel"). Acquired from the Lower Thompson. Length 30 cm. Dieck Collection 1887, inv. no.: IV B 1753 The body of the rattle consists of a curved double horn shell with a round face carved into each side. Sturdy quills pulled through holes in the lower edge connect the rattle body to a handle made of two wooden sticks, and the wood and quills are tightly wrapped with narrow strips of trade cloth and string. According to the collector, this rattle was "used for dancing, also to drive away or call spirits. Only the rich, the favoured, were allowed to touch it. It is said to have miraculous powers." However, Teit mentions that the Thompson Indians did not use hand-held rattles. It is possible that this piece was imported from a neighbouring tribe.
