Ceremonial Hatchet?

David,

I agree. Some mixed messaging going on in the IORM. Still, an interesting charitable group that had a women's companion organization, the Order of Pocahontas (OP). I guess that was how gender inclusiveness was handled in the 19th C.

Thank you for the informational tips.

I sent images to the IORM museum and received a response.

The axe was not officially issued by the IORM, not made by the organization. Its origin is a mystery.

very interesting....
