No. 21 (S and D47). A bottle or jug of black ware, furnished 
with what serves for both handle and spout, a peculiarity fre- 
quently met with in Peruvian pottery. Two rude figures of birds 
ornament this vessel. 
No. 22 (S and D 53). Vessel of black ware, with a handle 
having a tube (spout) at one end, and the representation of a 
human head at the other. The figure wears a cap, with conical 
projections, like that upon rattle No. 5. 
No. 23 (S and D 63). Cast of a vessel, in the form of a man's 
head, wearing a helmet. The nose is very aquiline. This is a 
remarkable specimen of Peruvian art, and is highly interesting 
as illustrating the Peruvian type of countenance and the pecu- 
liarity of head-dress. The original is of red ware, ornamented 
with white, and is in the Collection of the American Ethno- 
logical Society.

No. I (S and D 51). Vessel of red ware, having a handle with 
a tube (spout) at one end, and the figure of a bird, probably a 
toucan, at the other. The figures of two animals encircle the 
body of the vase. It is a whistling jug ; the whole surface has 
been painted white, relieved with red lines. It stands upon a 
ring which is carried round the base, like No. 7. 
No. 2 (S and D 57). Vessel of black ware, with a handle, in 
the form of a fish. 
No. 3. Vessel of red ware, painted with black figures and 
lines. 
No. 4 (S and D 58). Oblong vessel of black ware, the upper 
part in the form of a puma, suckling four young ones. The 
head of the puma has the same conventional treatment as that 
of No. 13, Case E to. The potter in each instance has repre- 
sented a condition of extreme leanness ; the backbone and the 
ribs appear to be coming through the skin.
