440 SOME ABORIGINAL SITES ON MISSISSIPPI RIVER. 
Vessel Хо. 182. А bottle (Fig. 50) which has an engraved design based on the 
swastika, with an addition often found in decoration having a mythological signifi- 
cance among the aborigines of southern United States, and probably derived from 
the crested serpent. This bottle is of interest in that it comes from a region where 
engraved decoration is less frequently encountered than is the case farther to the 
south ward.
