found apart from bones presumably on account of aboriginal disturbance or because 
burials had entirely disappeared) lay near remnants of teeth or fragments of skull, 
sometimes on one side of the skull only, occasionally on both sides of it. 
On no occasion were more than five vessels positively determined to have been 
placed with one burial, though in a single instance it seemed as if two deposits of 
three vessels each accompanied the same skull; but it is possible that one of these 
groups (which was somewhat separated from the other) had been placed with 
skeletal remains that had entirely disappeared. 
The method of arrangement of the earthenware vessels in the Glendora ceme- 
tery which was unusually diverse, was as follows : 
A single vessel resting on its base. 
Two vessels standing upright. 
A single inverted bowl. 
An upright vessel and an inverted one, together. 
Three vessels standing; two upright, one inverted. 
A vessel resting on its base and another on its side. 
Two upright vessels and one on its side. 
One upright vessel and two resting on their sides. 
An upright vessel covered by a large fragment. 
An upright vessel with a vessel inverted over it, sometimes fitting closely. 
Two upright vessels, over one of which was a third vessel inverted. 
Three upright vessels, one having a vessel inverted upon it. 
An erect vessel with another turned over it; with these, a vessel on its side. 
An erect vessel and one on its side, each covered by an inverted vessel. 
Two upright vessels, over one of which was a third vessel inverted, a fourth 
vessel inverted completing the group. 
Three upright vessels, one of them having a vessel turned over it, a fifth vessel 
inverted completing the group. 
A large vessel turned over three small ones standing erect. 
Two vessels standing erect, one covered by part of a large conch-shell (/ три"). 
Two upright vessels, one having a third vessel placed upright upon it. 
An upright vessel on top of another also upright, an inverted vessel alongside. 
Two upright vessels, one containing another also erect. 
Two vessels standing erect, within one of them a vessel inverted, 
A vessel standing upright within another one which, in its turn, was placed on 
a vessel standing on its base. 
One vessel was inverted over a discoidal stone. 
In fifteen vessels were single musselshells in fragments, doubtless having served 
as spoons. 
We append a description of the more noteworthy vonis from this exception-
