 37" deep. It held the crumbHng remains of a female's skeleton, 

 headed east, facing south and on the right side flexed. 



Grave XCVIII, pit 138, outside of trench 18 on the east at 44' 

 adjoining pit 137, was 48" deep, 49" long and 60" wide. It con- 

 tai"ned the skeletons of a male and a female [see pi. 15, fig. i]. The 

 bones had been disturbed by some burrowing animal, probably a 

 woodchuck. The skeletons lay back to back, the female on its left 

 side and the male on its right. The skull of the female was twisted 

 directly around and the lower jaw rested on the male's occiput 

 with the chin toward its own skull. Between the two skele- 

 tons were three triangular arrow points, a leaf-shaped point and a 

 lump of red ocher. The male lay with the skull to the south, the 

 face east and flexed on the right side ; the female originally probably 

 lay facing the southwest with the skull pointing southeast, on the 

 left side, flexed. 



Grave XCIX, pit 139, at 66' in trench 18 on the east side con- 

 tained the crumbling remains of an adult. At the face were 9 

 triangular arrowheads and one oval flint knife. At the top of the 

 skull was a broken pottery vessel and at the abdomen a deposit of 

 red ocher. A broken triangular point was found in the decayed 

 femur. At the foot of the grave, that is to the west, was the skull 

 of a bear, a copper bead and a triangular flint. The skeleton lay 

 v/ith the head east, the face south, on the left side flexed appar- 

 ently. 



Grave C, pit 140, at 66' in trench 18 on the west side was 42" 

 deep, 40" wide and 50" long. It held the crumbling remains of a 

 male headed east, facing south on the left side. At the top of the 

 skull and about 5" from it was a pottery vessel, F515. At the 

 occiput was a polished stone pipe and near the bowl 2 arrow points 

 [see pi. 15, fig. 2]. 



Grave CI, pit 141, at ';^y' on the east side of trench 18 was 36" 

 deep. In this grave was found the crumbling skeleton of a male. 

 At the forehead was a broken pot and a black stone pipe rested 

 on the ulna of the right arm. The pipe is figured in plate 22, figure 

 7. The skeleton lay on its right side heading east and facing south, 

 on the right side, flexed.
