68 ANNUAL REPORT SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, 1921. 



During the fiscal year Mr. D. I. Bushnell, jr., completed a manu- 

 script bearing the title : " Villages of the Algonquian, Siouan, and 

 Caddoan Tribes West of the Mississippi." While engaged in the 

 preparation of this manuscript he also secured many notes on the 

 burial customs of the same tribes, and these, together with much 

 additional material, are being used in the preparation of another 

 manuscript, entitled " Burials of the Algonquian, Siouan, and Cad- 

 doan Tribes West of the Mississippi." 



Miss Mary Lois Kissell has begun the preparation of the manu- 

 script of a bulletin on weaving of the Northwest Coast Indians, 

 which it is hoped will be later followed by others on other geo- 

 graphical areas. 



A small allotment was given to Mr. Gerard Fowke to carry on 

 special archeological work in Greenup, Ky., near Portsmouth, Ohio, 

 on mounds figured and described by Squier and Davis, and T. H. 

 Lewis. On the opposite bank of the Ohio River a celebrated cache 

 of pipes has been found, and it was hoped that a similar deposit 

 might be discovered near the effigy mound on the south side. The 

 results of this examination were negative so far as the object desired 

 was concerned, but resulted in several interesting observations of a 

 nature too technical to discuss in this place.
