Nos. 3, J3, 4, 33, and 5, IB, each have a bowl in the shape of a 
frog. 
Nos. 6, 23, 7, li, and 8, 3S var., have the bowl in the form of 
a toad. 
Nos. 10 to 14 represent birds of various kinds; No. 12, 38, 
represents the swallow ; a series of zigzag lines are to be noticed 
upon the belly of this bird. These markings only occur in the 
mound-sculptures upon birds of rapid flight, and it is probable 
that this lightning-like marking was intended as a symbol of 
swiftness. 
No. 13, 23 var., represents the tufted cherry-bird ; the head of 
this bird is out of proportion to the body — a not infrequent 
fault committed by the sculptors- of the mound period. The 
fire upon the altar has, in nearly every instance, destroyed the 
substance which was placed in the eye-sockets of many of the 
pipes ; the pearl, however, which forms the eye of No. 1 3 has 
escaped destruction. 
C 36. 
Nos. I to 14 are stone smoking-pipes ; No. 2, IB, represents 
the quail ; No. 5, JB, the heron ; and No. 6, 23, the tufted heron ; 
the small body ; long wings, extending to the extremity of 
the short tail ; the long thin neck, sharp bill, and tufted head 
are faithfully rendered in this sculpture. The bird is represented 
in the act of striking a fish. No. 11, SB, represents a bird; it 
has an inserted eye of some undetermined substance. 
C 37- 
Nos. I to 23 are stone smoking-pipes. 
No. 4, 23 (altered by heat), represents the Toucan feeding 
from a human hand. This bird is found in the tropical 
countries of South America. Pozzo mentions that the toucan 
can be very easily tamed. Other travellers inform us that 
these birds are very highly prized by the Indians of Guiana 
and Brazil, principally on account of their brilliant plumage. 
They pick off the skin from the breast, containing the most 
beautiful feathers, and glue it upon their cheeks by way of 
ornament. In some districts the toucan was almost the 
only bird the aborigines attempted to domesticate. The 
fact that it is represented, in the mound-sculptures, as 
taking its food from the human hand is, therefore, highly inte- 
resting. No. 7, 10, 8, 13, and 22, represent the Owl.
