This horn dates roughly 1820-1850. It is a plain, working powder horn only about 5 3/4 inches long, a convenient size for pocket or hunting bag. Sometimes considered a small horn just for priming powder, this was equally likely a working horn for someone out hunting for food not for sport, and not likely to be wasting powder.
The throat is very simply, somewhat crudely shaped. The base plug is in place, but shows some wear, two small holes, and two checks along the edge. [sr] [ph:m]
