PLATE XXII. 



(Mason. Basket-work.) 



Fig. 42. Twined roasting- tray of the Pai Utes. The warp is a lot of osiers spread out 

 like a fan. The weaving commenced at the bottom by short curves and 

 progressed by ever-widening curves to the outer margin. The rim is made 

 by a double row of the coiled and whipped work. The whole surface is 

 very rough, as in all Ute work, by reason of not twisting the strands when 

 making the twine. There is little ornamentation on this class of objects. 

 Collected in Southern Utah, in 1874, by Maj. J. W. Powell. Museum num- 

 ber, 11857. 



Fig. 43. Twined gathering and carrying basket of the Pai Utes. Woven precisely as 

 the hats (Fig. 40) and the roasting-trays (Fig. 42). The splints are very fine, 

 but their refractory nature makes all this ware coarse. Ornamentation is 

 produced by external twining and by geometric patterns in dyed splints. 

 Collected in Southern Utah, by J. W. Powell, in 1874. Museum number, 

 14667.
