98 CERTAIN ABORIGINAL MOUNDS OF THE GEORGIA COAST. 



but for a small breakage of the rim. Approximate measurements : diameter of 

 mouth, 5.5 inches; of body, the same; height, 4.5 inches. 



Burial No. 25, 29 feet S., 25 inches down, skeleton of child about five years of 

 age; flexed on right side, head S. 



Burial No. 26, 32 feet E. S. E., part of a skull and of a clavicle, near the surface. 



Burial No. 27, 31 feet E., 2 feet 6 inches down. Remains of a child, very much 

 decayed, apparently flexed on the right side, head E. 



Vessel II, 33 feet S. by E., an imperforate bowl, apparently unassociated, with 

 a maximum diameter at its mouth of 7.2 inches and a height of 3 inches, decorated 

 with incised lines below the exterior margin (Plate XIII, Fig. 1). No trace of 

 human remains was discovered. 



Burial No. 27i, Vessels J J and KK. Vessel J J, a bowl with a faint stamped 

 decoration, imperforate, in fragments but held in place by sand. Its outline was some- 

 what that of an inverted, truncated cone. Approximately it measured 12.5 inches 

 maximum diameter and diameter of mouth. Its height was 7 inches. This bowl 

 had been placed over the mouth of a vessel of the ordinary type (KK), but was 

 not inverted as usual but let into the opening in an upright position. From the 

 upper margin of JJ to the surface was 11 inches. KK, a vessel of ordinary type, 

 14 inches in height, was badly crushed. Its base, which had a perforation, was 

 below the water level, 27 inches down. It contained deciduous human teeth. 



Burial No. 28, 34 feet S. by E., a skeleton of a female, flexed on the right side, 

 head S. W., 2 feet from the surface. With it was an imperforate bowl (LL) with 

 handle projecting from upper margin at one side, and interestingly decorated, as 

 shown in Plate XIV, Fig 1. Approximate measurements : diameter of mouth, 6 

 inches; maximum diameter of body, 6.2 inches; height, 2.8 inches. 



Burial No. 29, Vessel MM, 34 feet S. S, E., a vessel of the ordinary type, with 

 base-perforation, the rim and part of the body ploughed away and lost. Human 

 remains were represented by one deciduous molar. 



•Burial No. 30, 32 feet S. E. by S., skeleton of female, flexed on right side, head 

 S. E. by S., 2 feet 10 inches down. 



Vessel NN, 42 feet. E., a vessel of the ordinary type, with base perforation, 

 rim and part of body ploughed away. The infant's bones, which this vessel at one 

 time doubtless contained, had disappeared. 



Burial No. 31, Vessel 00, 39 feet E. by S., a vessel of the ordinary type with 

 the upper portion ploughed away. On the base were bones in powder and the 

 lower jaw of an infant. The base proper showed no perforation, but on one side 

 vertically about 2 inches above the base, was a hole, carefully made, somewhat over 

 1 inch in diameter. This is a departure from the general rule. 



Burial No. 32, 40 feet S. by E., in all probability the skeleton of a female. 

 The glabella was practically wanting and the supra-orbital ridges were but slightly 

 developed. The general frame, however, indicated a fairly muscular person — 

 probably a powerful female. A number of small shell beads, one shell pin, and part 

 of another, lay near the head.
