ABORIGINAL SITES ON TENNESSEE RIVER. 375 
This interesting pipe is of a form characteristic of the Citico site. MeGuire! 
shows a pipe somewhat like ours as coming from Camden County, Ga., mentions 
another from Blount County, Tenn and says 
they apparently establish quite an interesting 
conventional treatment of the beak of a bird. 
At the upper end of the left femur were 
three discoidals of fine-grained, igneous rock, 
each about 1.5 inch in diameter. Six slender 
arrowpoints of flint lay near the knees. 
Burial No. 13 had been somewhat disturbed 
by the plow, but there were clear indications 
that the bones had been partly flexed to the 
right, the head NNW. Near the skull was a 
celt 5.5 inches in length, which was presented 
to Mr. Gardenhire, the owner of the property. 
Burial No. 14, partly flexed to the right, the dE LU tees 
head SSE., had at the right shoulder a small, үү т а N iu 12. Citico, "Tasa: 
шггей pot, а part of which had been (About full size.) 
plowed away. 
Burial No. 15 consisted of remains of a skeleton somewhat disturbed but with 
parts in order. At the knees and neatly piled were twenty small arrowheads 
of flint, all triangular and all pointing the same way. 
Burial No. 16, a child, the bones somewhat disturbed by an intersecting 
grave. With this burial were two discoidals of igneous rock, each about 1.25 
inch in diameter. 
Burial No. 17, about 2 feet deep, lay partly flexed to the right, head ESE. 
Under the lumbar region was a small flint arrowhead. 
Burial No. 18, 32 inches deep, lay partly flexed to the right, the head SE. 
The left forearm was across the trunk. Under the skull and extending under 
the left shoulder and down the outer side of the humerus were fifty-nine mussel- 
shells, badly decayed and broken. Some of these shells were perforated at one 
end for suspension, as doubtless all had been, but parts of some which would 
have testified as to the fact, were missing. On the thorax were eleven similar 
shells; there were five on the lower part of the trunk, and nineteen on the outer 
side of the right forearm. 
Burial No. 19 was a disturbance. At the left of the skull lay an undecorated 
bowl badly erushed. 
Burial No. 21, partly flexed to the left, head E. by S.; depth, 3 feet. Near 
the skull were two pebble-hammers. 
Burial No. 22, partly flexed to the left, head NW.; depth, 2 feet. At the neck 
were a number of marine shells (Marginella apicina) perforated for use as beads.
