ANTIQUITIES OF THE OUACHITA VALLEY. 83 
* Other specimens may be seen in which there is only a gentle swelling of the 
neck, but all gradations occur between this condition and that in which forms of 
two vessels distinctly appear.” 
We may explain here that several of the vessels figured in this class by us 
have possessed, in the past, necks of the variety under description, but these necks 
having been broken in part in aboriginal times, have been carefully smoothed and 
evened off to enable the vessel to be continued in use. 
The decoration on these bottles of compound form from Glendora is usually a 
combination of the scroll and other minor figures, trailed in some instances, incised 
in others, in a manner superior to anything of the kind hitherto met with outside 
the lower Mississippi region.

Ета, 10.—Vessel No. 157. Glendora. (Height 7.75 inches.) 
This set of bottles is shown in Figs. 9 to 26, inclusive. 
Vessel No. 107. This superb bottle, shown in Plate II, is of the same type as 
the bottles just described, but has, in addition, an exterior coating of red pigment 
of superior quality, through which is incised a beautiful combination of disks and 
running scrolls in a field of parallel lines which seem to lend emphasis to the decora- 
tion. In all probability the lines of the incised decoration on this bottle have been 
accentuated with white pigment, but if such was the case, no trace of the coloring 
material remains.
