ries of diagonal punctates on the lip and four horizontally trailed lines 

 on the rim exterior (pi. 48, d). The rim measures 27 mm. in height 

 and the lip is 6 mm. thick. This specimen most closely resembles the 

 type Grey Cloud Horizontal-Incised, Variety A. 



The second rim is incomplete, it resembles the first rim in all respects 

 except that it is decorated on the lip with a series of tool identations. 

 I have also classified this specimen as Grey Cloud Horizontal-In- 

 cised, Variety A (Smith and Grange, 1958, p. 103). 



The third rim is grit tempered, buff colored on the exterior and gray 

 on the interior surface; the core is also gray. The rim is slightly 

 flaring and the lip is somewhat rounded and beveled toward the ex- 

 terior. Decoration consists of four horizontally trailed lines on the 

 rim exterior and a series of vertically oriented tool indentations on the 

 lip interior (pi. 48, c). This sherd falls within the Grey Cloud Hori- 

 zontal-Incised, Variety C category as described by Smith and Grange. 

 This type is also represented by a small number of sherds from the 

 Talking Crow site (39BF3). 



TALKING CROW STRAIGHT EIM 



Talking Crow Straight Kim is a component type of Talking Crow 

 ware (Smith, 1951, pp. 36-37; Smith and Grange, 1958, pp. 101-102). 

 Charles H. McNutt, in a subsequent classification of certain Plains 

 pottery (McNutt, 1959) , prefers to assign similar sherds to the KusseU 

 Plain Rim type, a component of Russell ware. I have grouped five of 

 the rim sherds from the Good Soldier Component into the Talking 

 Crow Straight Rim category (pi. 48, e, /) . 



The rims are grit tempered. The exterior surfaces are buff, grading 

 into gray, and one sherd is black and orange. Interior surfaces are 

 buff to gray on four of the specimens and black on the fifth. Cores 

 are generally lighter than the darkest side-surfaces. In form the rims 

 are straight and the lips are flat to slightly rounded. Decoration is 

 confined to the lips and consists of a series of diagonal tool indenta- 

 tions on three of the specimens and punctations on the remaining two. 

 Three of the rims are complete enough to measure ; they range from 

 31 mm. to 41 mm. in height. Lips range from 5 mm. to 7 mm. in 

 thickness. 



CADOTTE COLLARED 



Pottery of this type has been described in a manuscript prepared by 

 Carlyle Smith. The ceramic classification is based upon specimens 

 excavated at the Two Teeth site (39BF204). Smith (personal com- 

 munication) also includes four collared rims, listed under the Miscel- 

 laneous category in the Spain site report, as Cadotte Collared (Smith 

 and Grange, 1958, p. 104, pi. 31, h). Only one rim sherd from the 

 Good Soldier Component can be classified within this grouping (pL 

 48,^).
