MORTARS, PESTLES, ETC. 



Nearly all the pestles and mortars from Wolpi present evidences of 

 age. They are nearly all of coarse sandstone, and were used for bruis- 

 ing food and grain. They are usually quite large, heavy, and round. As 

 they are generally of soft yielding rocks, the cavities are worn very 

 deep in most of them. 



1477. (42281). Large flat food mortar. 



1478. (42282). Paint mortar, made from a round sandstone boulder 

 about five inches in diameter.

1480. (42284). Mortar made from a round somewhat flattened sandstone 

 boulder.

 thick and eight inches in diameter, irregularly round, the depression 

 being about three inches deep. 



1482. (42286). Mortar for crushing grain ; this is an unusually fine speci-

 about an inch and a half thick at the top of the rim ; the cavity 

 is quite a perfect oval in shape, about five inches deep ; bottom 

 flat.
