Caption: Marker detail: Chunky Stone
Additional Description: This artifact, called a chunky stone, was the main component of a popular Native American game called chunky. The game was played by rolling the polished, circular stone disc across a large open space. Two or more players then tried to hurl spears at the stone just before it came to a stop. The player who came closest scored a point.
