_STATUETTES._
These objects vary in form, size, and decoration, the largest being about thirty inches high, the smallest not more than five. They are objects of worship in one form or another. The illustrations in the woodcuts and colored plates will convey a better idea of them than could be given in a description. They are entirely composed of wood, with feathers and other small ornaments attached to them occasionally.
2157. (41951). This is the largest one of these images in the collection, very highly ornamented with bright variegated colors. See Fig. 571.
2158. (41952). One of these objects, differing only in size and manner of decoration.

2165. (41959). Fig. 566. The general characteristics of this specimen are the same as those already referred to, but it differs in the arrangement of the head attachments; two rows of pyramids are shown; the lower one is inverted; the two rows are separated by three arches; the upper pyramids are ornamented at the tips with feathers. A necklace of acorn hulls is around the neck, with a shell ornament attached to it. Garters are represented at the knees. In this specimen, as in many others, the feet are only represented by stubs.
The body is decorated to represent fancifully colored clothing.
