598 CERTAIN MOUNDS OF ARKANSAS AND OF MISSISSIPPI. 
A small vessel of the “teapot” variety had a small cup turned over the open- 
ing of the body. | 
We give in detail descriptions of more noteworthy vessels found in the mound 
near Douglas. 
Vessel No. 99. This bowl of gray ware (Plate ХУШ) has the usual band of 
red pigment on the upper portion, inside and out. Interiorly is a combination of 
festooned bands, three bands on each of the four sides, probably sun-symbols.' 
FIG. 43.—Vessel No. 7. Douglas. (Diameter 7.5 inches.) 
Vessel No. 7, a bowl of yellow ware with the usual marginal decoration of red 
paint оп both sides (Fig. 45), has, in the interior, a design somewhat resembling a 
pair of antlers, perhaps an attribute of the horned serpent. 
Vessel No. 17 is-a bowl similar to the one just described with the exception 
that the lower, interior decoration is a cross of the four directions, with equidistant 
projections downward from the encircling marginal band—perhaps subdivisions of 
the four directions (Fig. 44).
