  the 
  next. 
  Fig. 
  338 
  represents 
  the 
  crucifixion, 
  with 
  a 
  bleeding 
  heart 
  

   on 
  each 
  side. 
  

  

  The 
  following 
  three 
  are 
  from 
  the 
  same 
  place. 
  Fig. 
  354 
  has 
  a 
  

   crown 
  above 
  and 
  a 
  star 
  below. 
  The 
  intervening 
  figure 
  shows 
  

   clasped 
  hands. 
  There 
  were 
  two 
  of 
  these, 
  showing 
  a 
  neat 
  border. 
  

   Fig. 
  355 
  has 
  the 
  Virgin 
  and 
  Child, 
  with 
  a 
  cross 
  above. 
  Fig. 
  347 
  

   has 
  a 
  heart-shaped 
  signet, 
  with 
  a 
  neat 
  border 
  inclosing 
  a 
  large 
  A. 
  

   No 
  others 
  have 
  been 
  observed 
  like 
  this. 
  

  

  Fig. 
  333 
  is 
  from 
  Scipioville, 
  in 
  the 
  same 
  county, 
  and 
  is 
  much 
  like 
  

   fig. 
  330. 
  Both 
  have 
  the 
  fleur-de-lis 
  beneath 
  the 
  L. 
  Fig. 
  352 
  was 
  

   picked 
  up 
  by 
  the 
  writer 
  by 
  a 
  Cayuga 
  grave, 
  where 
  many 
  others 
  had 
  

   been 
  found. 
  At 
  first 
  sight 
  there 
  seemed 
  to 
  be 
  an 
  unfinished 
  L, 
  but 
  

   a 
  comparison 
  with 
  some 
  to 
  follow 
  will 
  show 
  that 
  it 
  is 
  the 
  base 
  on 
  

   which 
  the 
  large 
  heart 
  was 
  often 
  placed. 
  

  

  There 
  follow 
  several 
  from 
  the 
  McClure 
  farm 
  in 
  Hopewell. 
  Fig. 
  

   319 
  is 
  a 
  small 
  ring 
  with 
  a 
  head 
  in 
  profile. 
  Fig. 
  320 
  is 
  another 
  fine 
  

   ring, 
  with 
  a 
  Maltese 
  cross 
  within 
  a 
  circle. 
  Fig. 
  331 
  has 
  an 
  angular 
  

   signet, 
  with 
  a 
  plain 
  border 
  around 
  a 
  large 
  L 
  and 
  a 
  small 
  heart. 
  Few 
  

   rings 
  occur 
  on 
  this 
  site. 
  

  

  Bronze 
  rings 
  have 
  been 
  abundant 
  on 
  some 
  Oneida 
  sites 
  on 
  Oneida 
  

   creek, 
  but 
  most 
  have 
  disappeared. 
  Two 
  only 
  will 
  be 
  mentioned 
  

   now, 
  both 
  being 
  from 
  Munnsville. 
  Fig. 
  321 
  has 
  I. 
  H. 
  S. 
  in 
  plain 
  

   characters, 
  with 
  a 
  cross 
  above. 
  Fig. 
  358 
  is 
  a 
  small 
  ring, 
  with 
  a 
  pair 
  

   of 
  compasses 
  inside 
  of 
  a 
  ring. 
  

  

  Quite 
  a 
  number 
  have 
  been 
  found 
  at 
  Brewerton, 
  but 
  of 
  most 
  of 
  

   these 
  neither 
  figures 
  nor 
  descriptions 
  have 
  been 
  secured. 
  Fig. 
  315 
  

   has 
  the 
  unusual 
  feature 
  of 
  a 
  head 
  with 
  the 
  face 
  toward 
  the 
  outer 
  

   edge. 
  The 
  work 
  is 
  rude 
  for 
  there 
  is 
  a 
  great 
  difference 
  in 
  these 
  

   rings 
  in 
  every 
  way. 
  Fig. 
  359 
  has 
  a 
  very 
  small 
  signet 
  for 
  the 
  size 
  of 
  

   the 
  ring, 
  and 
  on 
  this 
  are 
  circles 
  and 
  lines 
  variously 
  arranged. 
  In 
  

   1900 
  there 
  were 
  taken 
  from 
  one 
  grave 
  in 
  that 
  place, 
  35 
  of 
  these 
  

   bronze 
  rings, 
  tied 
  together 
  with 
  buckskin. 
  

  

  Dr 
  Hinsdale 
  obtained 
  some 
  rings 
  in 
  Pompey. 
  Fig. 
  278 
  is 
  one 
  of 
  

   these, 
  and 
  is 
  a 
  large 
  pewter 
  ring, 
  with 
  a 
  double 
  line 
  of 
  small 
  pro- 
  

   jecting 
  beads 
  of 
  the 
  same 
  material. 
  Fig. 
  279 
  is 
  a 
  fine 
  specimen,
