lYofes on Haivaiiau Petroglyphs.

diameter of 2.5 iuches to .5 inch, where they met. Four pairs of 

 finished holes were seen, and one partly drilled. 



In a cave on a mountain a little to the north-west of Waiohinu 

 petroglyphs were reported, but the native engaged as a guide 

 failed to appear, and consequently these were missed. 



About two miles to the south of Naalehu on the east wall of 

 a lava tunnel were found the petroglyphs (Figs. 21, 22) described 

 by Westervelt.'-^ The graving had been done by chipping away 



the white deposit on the surface of the black lava walls. This 

 deposit, when hammered, crumbled irregularly, on account of 

 which perhaps the workmanship lacked the symmetry and even 

 finish noted at other places. Besides the more common single- 

 lined forms, some with outlined and solid bodies may be noticed. 

 In the middle of Fig. 22 may be seen a petroglyph of a male with 

 three-toed feet. To the right of the middle of Fig. 21 are three 

 short parallel strokes — an unusual occurrence, but noted elsewhere 

 by Judd and Kramer.
