138 Bulletin American Museum of Natural History. [Vol. XVIII, 



summary has been made for those symbols that are neither 

 embroidered nor painted, but consist of attachments such as 

 pendants, fringes, strings, loops, or feathers: in short, all the 

 symbols consisting of decorations which are not flat like bead 

 or paint designs, but three-dimensional. 



In the list below is also given the total number of occur- 

 rences of each symbolic signification, on all the objects that 

 have been described. 



A preliminary list of symbols was illustrated in an earlier 

 paper.' On that occasion, however, symbols on objects of a 

 religious nature were included in the series, while in the 

 present case such objects have been left for subsequent sepa- 

 rate treatment, and the list has been made up from specimens 

 on which the ornamentation is decorative rather than cere- 

 monial or pictographic.
