Axe with a wooden handle that tapers towards the end and ends in a pommel. The head consists of a horse jawbone with teeth. The bone is bound to the shaft with raffia. The lower end of the handle is wrapped with a leather strap above the pommel, forming a loop. Two cuffs made of different snake skins are also sewn around the handle. Although the blade has the shape of an axe, it is blunt and it is assumed that the weapon was used more as a club or mace. The axe probably comes from South America. It could come from the Gran Chaco region and was donated to the Gewerbemuseum Ulm in 1919 by Karl Kärcher (1882 - 1968). Kärcher was a trade teacher in Ulm (1908 - 1918) and from 1918 director of the trade school in Bad Cannstatt. It is unclear where and when he acquired the object.
