LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS. 



PLATES. 



Plate I. Upper surface of Inscribed Tablet found in Mound No. :3, Cook Farm, about 

 two fifths of the natural size. Pages 96, 109. 



Plate II. Lower surface of same Tablet. Pages 96, 111. 



Plate III. Upper surface of another Inscribed Tablet from the same mound, about one- 

 half of the natural size. Pages 96,108. [The round spots at the right hand corners of the 

 figure are holes pierced through the slab apparently for the purpose of suspending it. This 

 edge should have been printed at the top] 



[Plates I, II, III were prepared by the Albertype process by Mr. E. Bierstadt, New York, 

 from Photographs taken at the Smithsonian Institution under the direction of Prof. Spencer 

 P. Baird, and give a very good idea of the tablets. It should be mentioned however that the 

 photographs were obtained by throwing a light obliquely across the stones from above, which 

 has caused the horizontal Uues to appear stronger than the vertical lines.}
