CERTAIN ABORIGINAL MOUNDS, CENTRAL FLORIDA W.-COAST. 393 



in two shades of red. Our artist has well shown in stipple the design in black, and 

 in lighter and darker " wash," the two shades of red. The lightest shade of all on 

 the vessel, of course represents the natural shade of the ware. About one-third of 

 this vessel was missing when found. There has been restoration of the missing 

 part, but no attempt to replace the complicated design. 



Vessel No. 21. — Undecorated, save for four repousse lobes each ending at the 

 base in a foot for the vessel's support (Fig. 32). 



Vessel No. 22. — An imperforate bowl of excellent ware, undecorated. A thick 

 rim projects laterally (Fig. 33). 



Vessel No. 23. — A vessel of about three pints capacity, with a neck, first con- 

 stricted, then expanded. The decoration consists of a small check-stamp. One of 

 four feet, missing through basal perforation, has been restored (Fig. 34). 



Vessel No. 24. — A vase with rude, 

 incised and punctate decoration, shown 

 in Fig. 35. 



Vessel No. 25. — Of inferior ware, 

 undecorated, with semi-globular bod3-, 

 and long neck first constricted, then 

 flaring.

Fig. 36. — Vessel No. 26. Mound near Crystal river. 

 (Full size.) 



Vessel No. 26. — A toy vessel, undecorated, imperforate, with four feet, shown 

 in Fig. 36. 



A sherd from this mound is shown in Fig. 37. 



Seven smoking pipes, all or nearly all from the mound proper, were met with 

 during the investigation. Three are of soapstone, all of the familiar type with rec- 

 tangular cross-section of the part having the bowl and of the part holding the stem. 

 One of these pipes, showing faint incised decoration, is shown in Fig. 38. At the 

 base of the bowl is a small circular orifice. In the second part of our " Certain 

 Aboriginal Remains of the Northwest Florida Coast," page 256, we speak of a pipe 

 with a basal perforation.
