TUSK

Object/Artifact

-

St. Joseph Museums

The image shows an elongated, curved object that appears to be a tusk or a horn, placed against a textured dark background. Its surface is smooth and has a gradient of colors ranging from golden brown to a darker, more earth-toned hue, suggesting a natural material. A small, rectangular label with handwritten numbers "414" and "10446" is attached to the object with a thin white string. Below the object, there is a metallic ruler aligned horizontally, measuring approximately 15 centimeters, providing a sense of scale. The tusk's length exceeds the ruler, indicating it is over 15 centimeters long. The right end of the tusk has a slightly rougher texture, while the left end tapers to a rounded point.
