    Hello everyone - I've picked up a few more Indian items. The eagle has almost an 8" wingspan. I was told that a baby's umbilical cord stump was inserted in the back and sewn up hence the slit. I was also told it was most likely a Plains tribe. The wool piece is 18 1/2" and 9 3/4" wide. I would appreciate knowing which tribes these are from so I can look up the imagery. Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Thanks, komokwa! They were sold together so I thought they might be related. The wool piece might be Central or South American then.
