Ете. 71.—Vessel No. 121. Greer. (Diameter 6.75 inches.) 
Vessel No. 8 is a cooking vessel of yellow ware, with soot still adhering (Fig. 
74). Тһе decoration of trailed lines and punctate markings shows scrolls, concen-

Vessel No. 37. This interesting little vessel (Fig. 75) is a reproduction in 
earthenware of one of the musselshells (Unzo) found in the Arkansas and White 
rivers. We do not recall having seen before the musselshell represented in earth- 
enware, though the conch and the clam figure in the pottery of the middle 
Mississippi region.
