koi'no-komp. 



koi'ya-kump. 



This and the preceding form 

 formerly pounded up in 

 water to form a mucilage 

 or gummy paste {wi'nau- 

 tsaug), which was applied 

 over the rough inner sur- 

 faces of earthen vessels, 

 especially bowls (wi'nau). 

 The paste filled up the 

 small holes and covered 

 over irregularities and upon 

 hardening left thus a 

 smooth surface. The 



wi'nau-tsaug (bowl " fil- 

 ler") was sometimes simi- 

 larly used in wicker vessels 

 designed to hold water, the 

 latter commonly being 

 first "pitched" with pine 



gum.
