Another skeleton at full length on the back had shell beads around the neck, 
which, probably, when strung, supported a disc of sheet-copper, 4 inches in diame- 
ter, having a central hole, and two perforations for suspension near the rim, which 
lay nearby. At an ankle and a wrist of this skeleton were a few shell beads. Іп 
the clay thrown out from the grave were two triangular sheet-brass pendants, and 
an annular ornament of the same material, 2 inches in diameter, and having an 
intervening space where the metal had broken between two perforations for 
suspension.

mussel-shell. 
Near a skeleton was an earthenware pipe of ordinary form, undecorated and 
of most inferior ware.
