Flat sandstone slab, with the horns of male and female deer engraved on one side. 137, 138. (40721) and (41249). Flat sandstones, used for baking _wi-a-vi_, a thin, wafer-like bread, by heating the rocks and then spreading a gruel-like mixture of corn meal over them. The largest one of these stones is about three feet in length by two in width. They are used by the Zuñi and Moki pueblos quite extensively. 139. (42324). Eighty chip flints and flakes of agate, quartz, chalcedony, &c. ARTICLES OF CLAY. _WATER VASES._ 140. (39871). Form and decorations shown in Fig. 359. The slender shading lines only are brown, the rest of the figuring black; the base in this as in most Zuñi pottery is reddish or slate colored. This may be considered as the type of one variety of decorations, readily distinguished by the unadorned circular spaces, the large scrolls, and the absence of animal forms. The larger forms of these vases are called by the Zuñians _kāh´-wi-nā-kä-tēhl-le_; the smaller forms, _det-tsan-na_. 141. (39916). The ornamentation is well shown in Fig. 360. The combinations on this piece are rare on Zuñi pottery, and the chief figure on the body is more symmetrical than is usual in this group of ware. This may also be considered as representing a second type of decorations of which there is but one other example in the collection. 142. (39920). This belongs to the variety represented by Fig. 360, and varies chiefly in having the neck decorated with leaf-like figures, and in having the scrolls replaced by triangles with inner serratures. 143. (39934). The largest size; Fig. 361. The decorations of this piece belong to a third variety, distinguished chiefly by the presence of the elk or deer. Attention is called to the three figured zones or belts on the body, the upper with the arch inclosing an elk; the middle and narrow belt adorned with figures of birds with a long crest feather. The helix or scroll is freely introduced in this variety. The one here figured is typical of quite a large group. The animals are usually black, as are the lines separating the spaces.
