  is 
  unusually 
  near 
  the 
  top. 
  It 
  is 
  four 
  and 
  one 
  fourth 
  long 
  by 
  nearly 
  

   one 
  and 
  one 
  half 
  inches 
  thick. 
  Fig. 
  92 
  is 
  of 
  flattened 
  red 
  sand- 
  

   stone, 
  with 
  a 
  pointed 
  eight-sided 
  top 
  above 
  the 
  groove. 
  The 
  

   body 
  is 
  also 
  angular 
  and 
  rather 
  irregular. 
  This 
  came 
  from 
  

   the 
  Seneca 
  River, 
  between 
  the 
  lakes 
  mentioned, 
  and 
  is 
  three 
  and 
  five 
  

   eighths 
  long 
  by 
  one 
  and 
  one 
  half 
  inches 
  wide. 
  

  

  Fig. 
  93 
  is 
  of 
  greenstone, 
  generally 
  cylindrical 
  and 
  slightly 
  faceted. 
  

   The 
  groove 
  is 
  deep 
  and 
  the 
  top 
  simple. 
  This, 
  with 
  several 
  follow- 
  

   ing, 
  came 
  from 
  Brewerton. 
  It 
  is 
  three 
  and 
  one 
  half 
  long 
  by 
  one 
  

   and 
  one 
  half 
  inches 
  wide. 
  Fig. 
  94 
  is 
  very 
  broad, 
  and 
  is 
  polished 
  

   and 
  somewhat 
  flattened. 
  It 
  is 
  elliptic 
  in 
  section, 
  and 
  made 
  of 
  red 
  

   granite. 
  It 
  has 
  shoulders 
  but 
  no 
  groove, 
  and 
  is 
  two 
  long 
  by 
  one 
  

   and 
  three 
  quarters 
  inches 
  broad. 
  A 
  few 
  closely 
  resemble 
  this. 
  Fig. 
  

   95 
  is 
  also 
  shouldered, 
  but 
  without 
  a 
  groove, 
  and 
  is 
  made 
  of 
  horn- 
  

   blendic 
  gneiss. 
  It 
  is 
  two 
  and 
  one 
  half 
  long 
  by 
  one 
  and 
  one 
  eighth 
  

   inches 
  wide. 
  Fig. 
  96 
  is 
  of 
  greenstone, 
  has 
  a 
  square 
  head, 
  and 
  is 
  

   generally 
  angular, 
  with 
  but 
  slight 
  curves. 
  It 
  is 
  three 
  inches 
  long 
  by 
  

   one 
  and 
  three 
  eighths 
  wide. 
  

  

  Fig. 
  133 
  is 
  of 
  brown 
  sandstone 
  pyriform, 
  and 
  with 
  a 
  deep 
  groove. 
  

   It 
  is 
  two 
  and 
  five 
  sixteenths 
  inches 
  long 
  by 
  one 
  and 
  three 
  eighths 
  

   broad. 
  Fig. 
  134 
  has 
  no 
  groove, 
  but 
  one 
  has 
  been 
  commenced. 
  It 
  is 
  

   of 
  quartz 
  and 
  four-sided, 
  but 
  with 
  the 
  angles 
  rounded. 
  It 
  is 
  two 
  and 
  

   one 
  half 
  inches 
  long 
  and 
  one 
  and 
  one 
  quarter 
  broad. 
  Fig. 
  216 
  is 
  

   reduced 
  in 
  the 
  illustration, 
  and 
  is 
  of 
  a 
  flattened 
  and 
  angular 
  green 
  

   basalt, 
  one 
  and 
  thirteen 
  sixteenths 
  inches 
  long 
  by 
  one 
  inch 
  thick. 
  

  

  A 
  faceted 
  greenstone, 
  two 
  and 
  three 
  fourths 
  by 
  one 
  and 
  one 
  

   fourth 
  inches, 
  has 
  a 
  small 
  projection 
  above 
  the 
  groove 
  at 
  the 
  top. 
  

   A 
  few 
  are 
  very 
  slender. 
  One 
  of 
  polished 
  brown 
  slate 
  from 
  Catskill 
  

   is 
  of 
  this 
  kind. 
  The 
  outline 
  is 
  a 
  long 
  pointed 
  ellipse. 
  It 
  is 
  three 
  

   and 
  seven 
  eighths 
  long 
  by 
  seven 
  eighths 
  of 
  an 
  inch 
  in 
  diameter. 
  

   Not 
  unlike 
  this, 
  but 
  with 
  rounded 
  ends 
  is 
  one 
  of 
  grey 
  sandstone, 
  

   from 
  Brewerton, 
  It 
  is 
  also 
  less 
  slender, 
  being 
  three 
  and 
  three 
  

   quarters 
  by 
  one 
  and 
  one 
  eighth 
  inches. 
  Many 
  are 
  ovoid 
  and 
  

   grooved, 
  but 
  angular 
  forms 
  are 
  common. 
  One 
  of 
  these, 
  from 
  the 
  

   Onondaga 
  Reservation, 
  is 
  eight-sided, 
  the 
  alternate 
  faces 
  being 
  

   wide 
  and 
  narrow. 
  It 
  is 
  of 
  light 
  brown 
  sandstone, 
  three 
  by 
  one 
  and
