_WATER JUGS AND JARS._

These are similar to those obtained at Zuni; sub-globular in form, one side more distinctly flattened on which to lie, the other very convex.

Usually with two handles, sometimes loops, and sometimes studs or knobs.

Occasionally ornamented white ware, but most generally unadorned brown or red ware. The latter showing, on some pieces, at least, a slight, perhaps accidental, glazing. They vary in size from six or seven gallons down to less than a pint.

As the various figures used in decorations have been described, only those which are unusual will be noticed here.

White decorated ware:

1539. (41320). Underside as usual, blown. Scalloped band in direction of mouth and handle, transverse double scalloped band across the upper half.

1540. (41362). Similar to the last.

1541. (41342). Simple bands and scrolls.

1542, 1543. 1542, (41401) and 1543, (41447). Similar.

Brown ware without ornamentation:

1544-1567. 1544, (41321); 1545, (41322); 1546, (41323); 1547, (41324); 1548, (41325); 1549, (41326); 1550, (41327); 1551, (41328); 1552 (41329); 1553, (41330); 1554, (41331); 1555, (41332); 1556, (41333); 1557, (41334); 1558, (41335); 1559, (41336); 1560, (41337); 1561, (41338); 1562, (41339); 1563, (41340); 1564, (41341); 1565, (41343); 1566, (41344); 1567, (41345).

1568-1569. 1568, (41609) and 1569, (41611). These have only the large diamond figures on the body, and a zig-zag line around the neck.

1570. (41610). The large diamonds serrate on the outer margin; neck with doubly oblique serrate lines.

1571. (41613). As in Fig. 514, except that the neck, instead of the zigzag, has oblique diamonds.

1572. (41614). This varies from the preceding in having only a narrow scalloped band around the neck.

1573. (41620). Only the large scrolls, nothing on the neck.

1574. (41622). Similar to the preceding, except that each alternate scroll is replaced by a rosette in a circle.

1575. (41615). Like No. 1515, except that the neck has a scalloped band with birds' heads.

1576. (41618). Large diamonds on the body alternately with rosettes, by the side of which is a bird.

1577. (41621). Similar to Fig. 514, except that the black has no circle in it.

1578. (41358). Small with a broad checkered band around the body.

1579. (41605). With narrow scalloped band around the neck; triangular figures pointing to right and left on the body with cross lines between the bases.

1580. (41608). Outline figures of terraced hills with cactus growing from them, and curved scalloped lines above.

1581. (41612). Scalloped band around the neck; oblique, heavy, double diamond figures with scrolls on the body.

1582. (41617). No decorations on the neck; body with the spear points or long triangles, and serrate oblique lines as on Zuni bowls.

1583. (41616). Line of little circles on the neck; triangles of lines, pointing to the left on the body.

1584. (41619). Similar in form and decorations to Fig. 371 (Zuni), except that the upper side of the band is formed of triangles instead of scrolls.

1585. (41629). This is really a double-handled jar.

1586. (41630). Scalloped band around bottom, serrated squares near rim.

1587. (41631). Scrolls on the neck; birds with crest feathers, and flowers on the body.

1588. (41634). Very small, with numerous scalloped lines arranged in diamond form.

1589. (41644). Series of double perpendicular scallops.

1590. (41468). Similar to No. 1586.

_TOY-LIKE WATER VESSELS._

The following are very small water vessels, probably intended for children:

1591. (41449). Figures of birds on body.

1592. (41450). The usual diamond and scroll on body.

1593-1603. 1593, (41346); 1594, (41347); 1595, (41348); 1596, (41349); 1597, (41350); 1598, (41351); 1599, (41352); 1600, (41353); 1601, (41354); 1602, (41355); 1603, (41448).

Small toy canteens:

1604-1607. 1604, (41439); 1605, (41440); 1606, (41442); 1607, (41443).

The following three are cup-shaped, with an ear on each side to which to attach a string, the top is closed, with a round orifice in the middle, and they are either medicine or little paint vessels and not canteens, as given in the original field catalogue:

1608-1610. 1608, (41444); 1609, (41445); 1610, (41446).

Water jugs and bottles are of various forms, which will be described under their respective numbers. They are usually of the white decorated ware. The brown ware is always undecorated.

1611. (41363). See Fig. 518.

1612. (41364). Brown ware shown in Fig. 517.

1613. (41365). Brown ware, cylindrical, constricted in the middle and with small orifice.

1614. (41393). Without handle.

1615. (41366). Fig. 519. A water jar made in imitation of a common gourd cultivated by many of the Pueblo tribes. The body is ornamented on both sides with a curved line and birds, as seen in the figure. A small circular orifice is left at the base of the handle.

1616. (41367). As in Fig. 520.
