FEWKES] QUADRUPEDS FIGURED ON POTTERY 669 
walls of one of the kivas at Walpi. The hoofs are bifid, and from a 
short stunted tail there arises a curved line which encircles the whole 
figure, connecting a series of round spots and terminating in a trian- 
gular figure with three parallel lines representing feathers. Perhaps 
the strangest of all appendages to this animal is at the tail, which is 
forked, recalling the tail of certain birds. Its meaning is unknown 
to me. 
There can be no doubt that the delineator sought to represent in 
this figure one of the numerous horned Cervide with which the ancient 
Hopi were familiar, but the drawing is so incomplete that to choose 
between the antelope, deer, and elk seems impossible. It may be 
mentioned, however, that the Horn people are reputed to have been 
early arrivals in Tusayan, and it is not improbable that representa- 
tives of the Horn clans lived in Sik- 
yatki previous to its overthrow. 
Two faintly drawn animals, evi- 
dently intended for quadrupeds, 
appear on the interior of the food 
bow] shown in plate cxxx, b. These 
are interesting from the method in 
which they were drawn. They are 
not outlined with defined lines, but 
are of the original color of the bowl, 
and appear as two ghost-like figures 
surrounded by a dense spattering 
of red spots, similar in technic to the 
figure of the human hand. I am 
unable to identify these animals, but 
provisionally refer them to the rab- 
bit. They have no distinctive sym- 
bolism, however, and are destitute 
of the characteristic spots which 
members of the Rabbit clan now invariably place on their totemic 
signatures. 
The animal design on the bowl illustrated in plate Cxxx, ¢, probably 
represents a rabbit or hare, quite well drawn in profile, with a feathered 
appendage from the head. Behind it is the ordinary symbol of the 
dragon-fly. Several crosses are found in an opposite hemisphere, sepa- 
rated from that occupied by the two animal pictures by a series of 
geometric figures ornamented with crooks and other designs. 
The interior of the food bowl shown in plate Cxxx, d, as well as the 
inner sides of the two ladles represented in plate cxxxt, b, d, are deco- 
rated with peculiar figures which suggest the porcupine. The body 
is crescentic and covered with spines, and only a single leg, with claws, 
is represented. It is worthy of mention that so many of these animal 
forms have only one leg, representative, no doubt, of a single pair, and
