This bracelet was recovered from an archeological site in Morris County and donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 2020. The brass bracelet has remnants of applied flowers and vines attached by soldering. The site had multiple occupations from the Archaic period to the late 1800s and may have been one of three large Kansa sites along the Neosho River occupied during the mid-19th century.
