ornamented with a pattern round the neck. 
A 41. 
The objects in this Case Nos. 21 to 34 are from the huacas 
of Chiriqui. Nos. 23 and 26 were presented to the Collection 
by Dr. Otis, Nos. 21 and 33 by Captain Oliver Eldridge. 
Nos. 21 to 25 are stone hatchets. No, 26 is part of a spear- 
head of obsidian. Upon Tablet 27 (S and D 437, 439, 440) are 
three stone arrow-heads. 
Upon Tablet 28 (S and D, U 39) is an electrotype copy of a 
gold ornament, representing two human figures, nude, with the 
exception of a loin-cloth, each bearing a shovel-shaped weapon 
and a spear; they have ear-ornaments and necklaces, upon their 
heads are square-shaped head-dresses. The original is in the 
Collection of the Honourable Caleb Lyon, 
Upon Tablet 29 (S and D, U 42) is an electrotype copy of a 
gold ornament in the shape of a frog. The original has been 
melted. 
Upon Tablet 30 a (S and D, U 41) is an electrotype copy of 
a gold ornament in the form of a puma. The original is in the 
Collection of Dr. Merritt. 
b (S and D, U 43) is a gold bell with a ring for suspension. 
Upon Tablet 31 (S and D, U 37) is an ornament in the shape 
of a frog. The gold, of which this object is formed, is much 
alloyed with copper. There are balls of metal in the eye-cavities 
which produce a rattling noise. This specimen has evidently 
been cast ; the feet and other parts show that they have been 
subsequently flattened by hammering. There are holes in the 
forefeet, by which this ornament could have been attached to 
the person. 
Upon Tablet 32 (S and D, U 38) is an ornament of base gold 
in the form of a fish, having holes for suspension. 
Upon Tablet 33 is a small figure of base gold in the form of 
a puma. 
Upon Tablet 34 (S and D, U 40) is an electrotype copy of a 
gold ornament in the form of a human figure, wearing a crown 
of serpents' heads. The original has been melted. 
The other metallic objects in this Case are for comparison.
