_WATER JUGS AND JARS._
2321. (41299). Fig. 593, Canteen with the images of four dogs or coyotes on it. Leaf decorations.
2322. (41300). Canteens, regular form. Irregular figures.
2323. (42412). Fig. 594. Canteen of regular form, scalloped band, leaves and geometrical figures.
2324. (42413). Fig. 595. Olla-shaped canteen. The top is depressed and ornamented with a scalloped band; immediately below this is a broad band consisting of two plain, narrow stripes, between which is a row of oblong figures arranged in a zigzag pattern; around the middle of the vessel there is a spa.r.s.ely serrate band, interrupted at intervals by small circles, in each of which there is the form of a cross.
2325. (42409). Fig. 596. The ornamentation on this piece is rather peculiar and worthy of attention, especially the bands around the columns.
2326. (42411). Double pepper and salt box, square form, with two handles side by side; birds mounted on the handles; figures of elk on the sides and ends in procession.
2327. (42475). Moccasin; rude.
_PITCHERS._
These are well formed, evidently in imitation of those introduced by the white population. All similar in form, with handles. White ware with decorations; of medium size.
2328. (41298). Shown in Fig. 592.
2329. (42405). Diamond scroll in the upper zone; a band of triangles with points directed upward in lower zone.
2330. (42406). Flower or rosette in upper zone, one on each side; no other figures.
2331. (42407). Broad band around the neck, from which two long-pointed triangles or ac.u.minate figures point downwards; then another simple straight band, and below this a zigzag band.
2332. (42408). Scroll band around the neck; a band of hour-gla.s.s figures around the shoulder.
2333. (42410). With an undulate band around the bowl.
_EFFIGIES._
These are of white decorated ware, and in the form of birds and quadrupeds; the orifice being usually in the top of the head, but in birds it is occasionally at the tail, and in the quadruped forms sometimes in the breast.
Birds.
These are frequently without feet, &c.; one or two double ones are on pedestals.
2334-2347. 2334, (41301); 2335, (41302), Fig. 597; 2336, (41303), Fig.
598; 2337, (41304); 2338, (41305); 2339, (42414), Fig. 608; 2340, (42415), Fig. 599; 2341, (42418), Fig. 609; 2342, (42419); 2343, (42423); 2344, (42426); 2345, (42427); 2346, (42428); 2347, (42429), are all similar to that represented in the Figures; some of them are intended to represent other birds than ducks.
2348. (42417). Fig. 600. With two heads on a pedestal.
2349. (42420). Two heads, but not on a pedestal; a handle on the back in the form of a fox or dog. See Fig. 605.
2350-2352. 2350, (42421); 2351, (42422); 2352, (42424). Similar to those shown in Fig. 598, but the decorations are scrolls and triangular figures. The first has a flower or rosette on the breast.
2353. (42425). Two-headed; not on pedestal; lines, triangles, &c.
2354. (42435). With a crest and long tail; apparently a rooster.
Quadrupeds.
2355. (41306). Fig. 601. This represents a sheep. The orifice is in front of the head.
2356-2357. 2356, (41307), Fig. 609, and 2357, (41309). These are probably intended for sheep, but they are so rude that it is not possible to determine with any certainty. Bark colored.
2358. (41308). A cow; although rude, the characteristics are well given, even to the hoofs and udder; spotted on the back and breast. Coloring on the sides intended to represent hair.
2359. (42430). Shown in Fig. 606.
2360. (42431). Fig. 602. This and the preceding figure are evidently intended to represent rabbits.
2361-2362. 2361, (42432), and 2362, (42433). Similar to the last; apparently intended for a figure of the a.s.s (_Burro_), though the spots on the former are inappropriate. The latter is decorated on the side with the figure of another quadruped.
2363. (42434). Animal unknown.
2364-2365. 2364, (42436), and 2365, (42437). Animal not determinable; decorated with spots.

2372. (42444). Probably a dog or coyote, with scrolls and diamond figures. See Fig. 604.
2373. (42445). Probably a horse.
Human figures--dolls.
2374-2377. 2374, (42447); 2375, (42448); 2376, (42449); 2377, (42450).
Females; simple.
2378. (42446). Is a pretty fair representation of a chair.
_EATING BOWLS._
The Laguna bowls are mostly of two sizes, either large or small. The former are eating bowls and are of the general form, or perhaps more hemispherical than usual. The small ones vary in shape from the preceding form to that of a flat-bottomed basin. The decorations present but little similarity to those we have previously described from other tribes; white ware with colored decorations.
Small bowls. Decorations all external:
