  are 
  the 
  principal 
  motives. 
  The 
  other 
  stylistic 
  division 
  is 
  more 
  like 
  

   the 
  decoration 
  of 
  the 
  burial 
  urns; 
  lines 
  are 
  wider 
  spaced, 
  less 
  area 
  is 
  

   decorated, 
  and 
  the 
  total 
  design 
  is 
  simpler. 
  

  

  Some 
  of 
  the 
  smaller 
  vessels 
  in 
  the 
  brick-red 
  ware 
  group 
  have 
  painted 
  

   decoration 
  of 
  dark 
  red 
  or 
  brown 
  lines 
  over 
  a 
  lighter 
  brown 
  or 
  buff 
  slip

  Miscellaneous 
  ceramic 
  objects. 
  — 
  Elbow-form 
  tobacco 
  pipes 
  are 
  a 
  

   feature 
  of 
  La 
  Candelaria 
  culture. 
  One 
  of 
  these 
  (Ryden, 
  1936) 
  has 
  an 
  

   inverted 
  conical 
  bowl, 
  a 
  stem 
  which 
  projects 
  beyond 
  the 
  bowl, 
  two 
  

   nubs 
  or 
  feet 
  under 
  the 
  bowl, 
  a 
  crude 
  anthropomorphic 
  design 
  modeled 
  

   on 
  the 
  bowl, 
  and 
  zigzag 
  incised 
  designs 
  on 
  the 
  bowl 
  and 
  stem. 
  A 
  

   circular 
  game 
  counter 
  made 
  from 
  a 
  potsherd 
  and 
  a 
  small 
  human 
  

   figurine 
  were 
  also 
  recovered 
  by 
  Ryden 
  (1936). 
  

  

  Objects 
  of 
  stones. 
  — 
  Three 
  types 
  of 
  mortars 
  or 
  grinding 
  stones 
  were 
  

   found 
  in 
  La 
  Candelaria: 
  (1) 
  Mortars 
  consisting 
  of 
  a 
  conical 
  or 
  cylin- 
  

   drical 
  depression 
  in 
  a 
  movable 
  rock 
  or 
  in 
  live 
  rock; 
  (2) 
  stones 
  with 
  

   elongated, 
  shallow 
  depressions; 
  and 
  (3) 
  "pecanas," 
  or 
  two 
  flat 
  stones 
  

   which 
  were 
  rubbed 
  against 
  each 
  other 
  with 
  the 
  grain 
  placed 
  between 
  

   the 
  stones. 
  Cylindrical 
  pestles 
  were 
  used 
  in 
  the 
  first 
  type,and 
  flat 
  

   mullers 
  were 
  used 
  in 
  conjunction 
  with 
  the 
  second 
  type. 
  Miscellaneous 
  

   whetstones 
  are 
  also 
  found 
  on 
  La 
  Candelaria 
  sites. 
  

  

  Stone 
  celts 
  or 
  axes 
  are 
  of 
  two 
  principal 
  types: 
  (1) 
  Those 
  which 
  were 
  

   hafted 
  on 
  a 
  straight 
  handle 
  and 
  which 
  are 
  the 
  regular 
  three-quarter 
  

   grooved 
  type 
  (fig. 
  68, 
  a, 
  b) 
  ; 
  and 
  (2) 
  those 
  which 
  were 
  really 
  adzes 
  and 
  

   were 
  elbow-hafted 
  and 
  are 
  grooved 
  on 
  one 
  broad 
  and 
  two 
  narrow 
  sides 
  

   (fig. 
  68, 
  c). 
  Some 
  chipped 
  rather 
  than 
  ground 
  stone 
  axes 
  were 
  also 
  

   found 
  (fig. 
  68, 
  e). 
  Ryden 
  (1936) 
  shows 
  one 
  T-shaped 
  ax 
  and 
  another 
  

   ungrooved 
  specimen 
  which 
  may 
  have 
  been 
  an 
  adz 
  or 
  an 
  ungrooved 
  

   celt 
  (fig. 
  68, 
  d). 
  

  

  Curious 
  and 
  miscellaneous 
  small 
  stone 
  objects 
  include: 
  Polished 
  

   elongated 
  or 
  egg-shaped 
  stones 
  which 
  may 
  be 
  bola 
  or 
  sling 
  stones; 
  

   irregularly 
  shaped 
  but 
  worked 
  stones; 
  hemispherical 
  and 
  spherical 
  

   stones; 
  flat 
  pendants, 
  more 
  or 
  less 
  circular 
  in 
  outline 
  (fig. 
  68, 
  f); 
  

   grooved 
  cylindrical 
  pendants 
  (fig. 
  68, 
  g) 
  ; 
  cylindrical 
  beads; 
  and 
  crudely 
  

   carved 
  and 
  decorated 
  human 
  figures. 
  

  

  A 
  single, 
  small-stemmed 
  and 
  barbed 
  projectile 
  point 
  was 
  recovered 
  

   by 
  Ryden 
  (1936) 
  (fig. 
  68, 
  g). 
  Schreiter 
  (1934) 
  figures 
  three 
  projec- 
  

   tiles 
  from 
  La 
  Candelaria: 
  two 
  are 
  stemmed 
  but 
  not 
  barbed, 
  one 
  is 
  

   large 
  and 
  unstemmed. 
  Projectile 
  points 
  are 
  generally 
  rare 
  in 
  the 
  

   region. 
  

  

  Objects 
  of 
  shell. 
  — 
  Circular 
  shell 
  beads 
  or 
  spangles 
  and 
  olive 
  

   shells 
  which 
  were 
  strung 
  as 
  necklaces 
  were 
  found. 
  The 
  shell 
  species 
  

   are 
  of 
  both 
  Atlantic 
  and 
  Pacific 
  varieties. 
  

  

  Objects 
  of 
  bone. 
  — 
  Ryden 
  (1936) 
  identifies 
  only 
  a 
  weaver's 
  baton, 
  

   probably 
  made 
  from 
  guanaco 
  bone.
