VERTEBRZE 
Several dorsal and lumbar vertebre belonging, apparently, to one body, found 
“deep” in the mound by Professor Barbour. The bones are of moderate dimen- 
sions. The bodies of several of the vertebrae show asymmetry, while the twelfth 
dorsal presents, in addition, somewhat peculiar lateral processes, a deviation of 
the spinous process to the left, and a plain trace of a formerly existing separa- 
tion of the left lamella from the base of this process, conditions all pointing to 
disturbance in ossification of this spine. None of the bones show any 
fossilization. 
SACRUM 
Found “deep” in the mound by Professor Barbour. The bone is composed 
of five segments and shows normal size and form, with moderate curvature. 
Height, 11.5 em.; maximum breadth, about 11.4 em. No fossilization. 
PELVES 
Two adult male pelves, found in the mound by Mr. Gilder; depth not recorded. 
The specimens in every respect are normally developed, and approximate in form 
the pelvis of the Indian. One, accompanied by several of the lumbar vertebree, 
shows some senile marginal exostoses, such as are common in aged whites and 
occur also in old Indians. 
Pelvis a, somewhat defective; is strongly built. Diameter external maximum 
(bi-iliac), 31.4 em.; height maximum, about 22.7 cm.; greatest breadth of right 
ilium, 17.1 em.; of left ilium, 17 cm.; greatest transverse diameter of the 
superior strait, 16.8 cm. The sacrum consists of five segments, but the last 
lumbar shows on the left side a tendency to assimilation; curvature medium ; 
height, 11.1 cm.; greatest breadth, 12.9 em. 
Pelvis b, defective; shows bones of moderate strength. Greatest height of 
right os innominatum, 22.9 em.; greatest breadth, 16.7 cm. Sacrum damaged ; 
curvature moderate; was composed, apparently, of six segments. Neural canal 
shows posteriorly throughout its height a defect, due te imperfection of the 
neural arches of the vertebrae composing the bone. 
OS CALCIS 
Found “deep” in the mound. Form quite ordinary. No fossilization. 
Greatest length, 7.8 cm.; height at middle, 4.25 cm.; smallest breadth at middle, 
oul (em, 
PHALANGES 
Several phalanges and pieces thereof from “deep” in the mound. The 
bones are of moderate size and show no special features. Some of the slivers 
look very fresh. 
LONG BONES OF A CHILD LESS THAN A YEAR OLD 
Found “deep” in the mound by Professor Barbour. The bones are slender, 
but normal; the right femur measures, minus epiphyses, 10.7 cm. The bones 
look quite fresh, and certainly retain a good proportion of animal matter. The 
ends of the apophyses, except where broken off, show the delicate cancellous 
tissue in a perfect state of preservation.
