Hand-carved wooden quiver used by Indigenous hill tribe communities in the jungles of South Vietnam for hunting and, in some cases, self-defense or local armed conflict.

The quiver, along with crossbow and arrows, was presented to Lieutenant General R. P. Klocko, USAF (Ret.), during a visit to the Republic of Vietnam in 1970.Collection
