Spontoon pipe tomahawk came from an Osage family in Pahuska, Oklahoma. Spontoon style is credited as the "last true weapon" that was used during the Indian War Period 1860s - 1870s . Most samples are credited towards Sioux and Comanche however Oklahoma and the Quapaw would be directly between the two. Without much adornment, we assume this piece was a "user."
