PL. XII. Various Trays. 



A. Mori (bean trays). The form of the design resembles a bean. 



B. The design is not fully identified; it is probably a combination of a sling 

 and head-dress tray, 



C. A combination of an ohchok (filled in), and compi (tied to) tray. 



D. Qoydpruru ( white opening trays ). The Hopi women say that the 

 name is derived from the white in the eye which appears on the eyes being 

 opened, and disappears upon the eyes being closed. 



E. Towihpi ( sling tray). The name refers to the five diamond-shaped de- 

 signs in the tray, which resemble the piece of buckskin which the Hopi boys use 

 for their slings. 



F. Kopdchok (head-dress tray). The terrace-shaped designs in the tray 

 resemble certain ceremonial head-dresses used on various occasions, either on 

 masks or on the heads of certain dancers. The name is said to be derived from 

 these head-dresses, although almost any form of a ceremonial head-dress is called 

 kapdchoki. 



G. Siohotahpi ( Zuni key tray). Just why this form of tray is called by that 

 name the Ordibi women could not satisfactorily explain to me. They say that this 

 design has always been called by that name and some stated that probably there 

 was something in the design resembling certain old wooden keys of the Zunis. 

 Some also were inclined to call the pattern omawu (cloud) pattern, because it 

 shows the typical Hopi symbol for clouds with falling rain. 



H. This tray shows a combination of designs, as is very often the case. 

 From the diamond-shaped figures it might be called a sling tray, like "E," 

 From the terrace-shaped figures it would be called a head-dress tray, like "F."
