BOAs] BASKETRY OF NEIGHBORS OF THE THOMPSON 341 
A brief discussion of the typical arrangements of these few Lillooet 
patterns may not be out of place here, especially when comparing 
them with the Thompson. 
1. There is a very small check known as the spot or fly pattern 
which is executed in beading or in small imbrications on the margins 
of baskets in several ways similar to the designs seen in the Thompson 
Sketches 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7. That like 3 occurs in vertical as well as 
in horizontal rows. The Lillooet Sketches 3 and 4, Figure 105, 
may be compared with the Thompson 469, 470, and 699. 
2. The fly designs are extremely common, especially in vertical 
stripes and droppers. A number of common variations are given

Fic. 105.—Lillooet designs 
in Figure 104. Other varieties seen since the publication of the 
volume on the Lillooet are comparable to the following Thompson 
sketches: 393 but small and in disconnected arrangement; 393 con- 
nected in vertical rows, with an arrangement similar to that shown 
in d, Figure 104; 347, 425, and 212(?), only considerably smaller. 
In addition to these there are other variations of the figures given 
here. Sketch 8, Figure 105, is seen also in connected vertical series. 
Sketches 5, 6, and 7 of the same figure are also used as detached 
elements. Arrow designs which are executed in checker are some- 
times called fly designs on account of their surface treatment which 
is considered more important than the general outline of the pat- 
tern. Again the term used is equivalent to fly designs in arrow- 
head arrangement. 
‘8? The Thompson sketches refer to Plates 78-94.
