SOME ABORIGINAL SITES ON MISSISSIPPI RIVER. 441 
Vessel No. 134. А bottle having in relief оп one side а modeled head of a 
frog and on the opposite side а tail (Fig. 51). The reader will recall that in aborig- 
inal art in the United States, the frog usually is represented with a tail. 
FIG. 51.— Vessel No. 134. Bradley Place, Ark. (Height 5.25 inches.) 
Vessel No. 84. А pot, the body of which is surrounded by vertical depres- 
sions. From one side projects the modeled head of some animal. A tail which 
has been on the opposite side is missing. On two sides, opposed to each other, are 
two disks in relief (Fig. 52). 
Vessel No. 38. This bowl (Fig. 53) belongs to a class specimens of which 
often are found in the Middle Mississippi region. It is interesting only in that the 
animal head is represented with expanded jaws, an unusual, though not a unique 
feature. 
Vessel No. 187. This bottle (Fig. 54) is somewhat similar in shape to one 
figured by Holmes! as coming from Arkansas. The body is surrounded by vertical 
corrugations which, at one time, have been coated with red and white alternately. 
The neck, slightly flaring at the opening, has been covered with alternate, horizon- 
tal bands of white and of red. A beaded collar surrounds the union of the neck 
with the body, and a similar decoration adorns the margin of the base.
