For consideration are two matching blue and black beaded Turtle and Lizard horsehair leather fetish pouches! Both pouches have tin cones and horsehair inside. One pouch has a small amount of sticker residue from past price tag that was removed. Both pouches are in good vintage condition!

When the umbilical cord shriveled and fell off a newborn, it was wrapped in sage and placed inside a specially decorated animal, usually a turtle or lizard. The turtle was used for girls and the lizard for boys. Two fetishes were made, one with the umbilical cord and one just stuffed with buffalo or horsehair. It was believed that the matched pair would confuse evil spirits from taking the child's spirit or trying to control them. Turtle pouch is 3.5 x 2-5/8.
