Catlinite Tablet Stolen from Pipestone County Museum, Pipestone, Minnesota

The missing object is tabular, about 3/4" thick, is irregularly shaped,
dimensions at the widest points are 7 1/8 inches by 5 1/8 inches.  It is
red in color and darkened where it has been exposed to heat.  A number of
figures are incised on both surfaces; the most easily-recognized are
human-like figures with round heads and arms bent, and raised to head
level.  A snake-like figure is incised on the other side along with many
other superimposed figures.  The tablet was found on the Blood Run site and
donated to the Pipestone County Museum by the landowner. Scanned and
sketched images of the item can be obtained by contacting:
