_Animal and Human Forms._ There are a number of sculptures that apparently were intended to represent heads of animals, whole animals and human forms. The top of the pestle shown in Fig. 31 is sculptured to represent what is apparently an animal head. The top of the one shown in Fig. 33 has three nipples one of which is longer than the others. This sculpture also seems to represent an animal head, the ears being indicated by the short nipples and the nose by the long one. The top of the pestle shown in Fig. 34 apparently represents an animal head, the mouth being indicated by the groove, each eye by a pit and there are four incisions across the top or back of the head. A sculptured animal head, with wide open mouth, pits for eyes, and projections for ears on what may be a pestle top, has been found in the Nez Perce region to the east[398] and pestles with heads are found in the Thompson River area to the north.[399] The knob shown in Fig. 35 (p. 47) is interpreted as representing a snake's head. The heart-shaped knob on the top of the club shown in Fig. 68 resembles the form of an animal head and stands at an angle of about 45° to the axis of the club. Two of the incised circles probably represent the eyes. The top of the handle of a digging stick made of horn of the Rocky Mountain sheep, shown in Fig. 126 is sculptured to represent an animal head. It was obtained from an Indian woman living near Union Gap below Old Yakima. [398] Spinden, Plate IX, Fig. 19. [399] Smith, (c), Fig. 341a; Teit, (a), Fig. 295. [Illustration: Fig. 124.
