These harness buckles and clip fragment were recovered from the Havana Stage Station site along the Santa Fe trail in Osage County. The buckles and clips attach harness straps, collars, and other pieces of horse-drawn equipment. The Havana Stage Station was built in 1858 and was used as a farmstead after the station was closed. The site was a focus of the 1995 Kansas Archeology Training Program field school in 1995.
