set up as two separate types, wherein one type has untreated lip and 

 throat and the other confines the treated area only to the exterior of 

 the vessel could not be decided, for it would seem to be drawing the 

 distinctive qualifications much too finely, so both were grouped into 

 a single category. 



Hyco Cord-Wrapped gained favor very rapidly (66.7 percent) and 

 edged out the earlier Ilyco Plain (33.3 percent), which soon disap- 

 peared altogether. Before the complete disappearance of Hyco Plain, 

 a third ware made its appearance, Hyco Fabric-Marked. This ware 

 had a mushroom growth and gained popularity very rapidly. Vessel 

 form, a type of paste, firing methods, and colors remained stable all 

 during this phase of growth (fig. 21). 



Fabric-marking continued very strong all through the Early Wood- 

 land, and this concept was carried over into Middle Woodland times, 

 becoming of minor importance during the early phases of the Late 

 Woodland. 



The technological tradition of the fabric-marking, in the pottery 

 continuum, had the tendency to occupy not only a great deal of space 

 but proved to be rather persistent, in that traces continued into the 

 latest period of occupancy but on an entirelj^ different type of paste. 

 It served, somewhat, as a time marker during the Early or Transi-
