708 EXPEDITION TO ARIZONA IN 1895 [ETH. ANN. 17” 
The modification of the multiple bands in figure 283 has produced a 
very different decorative form. This design is composed of five bands, 
the marginal on each side serrate, and the middle band relatively very 
broad, with diagonals, each containing four round dots regularly 
Fig. 284—Paralle! lines and triangles 
arranged. In figure 284 there are many parallel, noncontinuous bands 
of different breadth, arranged in groups separated by triangles with 
sides parallel, and the whole united by bounding lines. This is the 
most complicated form of design where straight lines only are used. 
Fic. 285—Line with alternate triangles 
We nave thus far considered modifications brought about by fusion 
and other changes in simple parallel lines. They may be confined to 
one side of the food bowl, may repeat each other at intervals, or sur- 
round the whole vessel. Ordinarily, however, they are confined to one 
side of the bowls from Sikyatki. 
Fic. 286—Single line with alternate spurs 
Returning to the single encircling band, it is found, in figure 285, 
broken up into alternating equilateral triangles, each pair united at 
their right angles. This modification is carried still further in figure 
286, where the triangles on each side of the single line are prolonged 
Fic. 287—Single line with hourglass figures 
into oblique spurs, the pairs separated a short distance from each 
other. In figure 287 there is shown still another arrangement of these 
triangular decorations, the pairs forming hourglass-shape figures con- 
nected by an encircling line passing through their points of junction.
