PLATE XLII. 



(Mason. Basket-work.) 



Fig. 7:}. Woven bread- tray of the Molds, made upon radiating warp twigs by weaving 

 bits of colored twig, stripped of their bark, in and out, and by fastening off 

 the ends alongside of the warp twigs inside the fabric. This type should 

 be particularly noticed as the first example yet encountered of the regular 

 basket weaving so common in the ware of more civilized peoples. Some 

 of the bits of twig used are less than an inch long, and none of them ever 

 exceed a foot. The figure is the same on both sides, but each stitch and 

 design in frout is just one space farther to the right on the back. Collected 

 in Arizona, by J. W. Powell, in 1874. 



FlG. 74. One square inch of Fig. 73, showing the regularity and disposition of the 

 weaving.
