  Further 
  search 
  along 
  the 
  walls 
  of 
  the 
  quebrada 
  was 
  rewarded 
  

   by 
  the 
  discovery 
  of 
  several 
  other 
  bone 
  deposits 
  whose 
  history 
  

   seems 
  to 
  have 
  been 
  almost 
  as 
  closely 
  connected 
  with 
  recent 
  

   changes 
  in 
  the 
  contours 
  of 
  the 
  gravels 
  as 
  was 
  the 
  history 
  of 
  

   the 
  deposit 
  found 
  in 
  1911. 
  Reference 
  has 
  been 
  made 
  to 
  a 
  

   mass 
  of 
  talus 
  material 
  at 
  the 
  foot 
  of 
  the 
  northeast 
  wall 
  and 
  

   about 
  60 
  feet 
  distant 
  from 
  the 
  excavation 
  of 
  1911.

  material, 
  by 
  the 
  side 
  of 
  the 
  trail, 
  human 
  bones 
  were 
  found 
  

   under 
  conditions 
  differing 
  from 
  those 
  that 
  obtained 
  in 
  the 
  

   interment 
  previously 
  described.

  the 
  cut 
  bank 
  where 
  these 
  bones 
  were 
  found, 
  the 
  

   position

  pieces 
  exposed 
  at

  the 
  

   upturned

  Excavation 
  at 
  this 
  place 
  brought 
  

   to 
  light 
  parts 
  of 
  two 
  human 
  skeletons, 
  a 
  fragment 
  of 
  a 
  llama's 
  

   vertebra, 
  a 
  piece 
  of 
  charred 
  bone, 
  a 
  few 
  podial 
  bones 
  of 
  some 
  

   small 
  unidentified 
  mammal, 
  bits 
  of 
  charcoal, 
  and 
  a 
  small 
  flat 
  

   piece 
  of 
  bone, 
  about 
  \\ 
  inches 
  long 
  and 
  -J 
  inch 
  wide, 
  pierced 
  at 
  

   one 
  end. 
  ISTo 
  pottery 
  was 
  found. 
  The 
  human 
  material 
  shows 
  

   no 
  departure 
  from 
  the 
  modern 
  Indian 
  type 
  of 
  the 
  region, 
  and 
  

   possesses 
  little 
  morphological 
  interest 
  except 
  that 
  the 
  iliac 
  por- 
  

   tion 
  of 
  a 
  left 
  os 
  innominatum 
  has 
  no 
  preauricular 
  sulcus, 
  while

  same 
  portions 
  of 
  two 
  smaller 
  and 
  slighter 
  ossa
