Vessel No. 9. — Fragments of part of a bowl. 



Vessel No. 10. — Bowl, perforate base, inferior ware with four incised, encir- 

 cling, parallel lines. Maximum diameter, 8.25 inches ; depth, 5.2 inches. From 

 the rim, projecting obliquely upward, are six rude animal heads, much resembling 

 in style those shown on Vessel No. 13, this mound. 



Vessel No. 11. — A bowl with rough, incised decoration and in-turned rim a 



little less than 1 inch in width. 

 From the body are four projections. 

 This vessel, which rudely represents 

 a life-form, lay tilted on its side 2

 perforate (Fig. 57). 



Vessel No. 12. — A rather rude, im-

 Diameter of body, 7 inches; depth, 4.75 inches. 



Vessel No. 13. — A bowl of inferior ware, perforate, with undecorated body and 

 four projections, rude representations of animal head (Fig. 58). Maximum diame-
