Abstract
Here we present a detailed analysis and description of a leather bag and its contents. The find came from the Great Gallery in Horseshoe Canyon, Utah, an impressive rock art site within Canyonlands National Park. The bag contained marsh elder (Iva xanthifolia Nutt.) seeds and an assortment of flakes and other artifacts that appear related to arrow point production. The bag was made and cached at the site sometime during the interval of cal. A.D. 770–970. This age assignment is based on the average of three AMS radiocarbon dates on separate components of the bag.
