. Bulletin. Ethnology. 28 BUREAU OF AMERICAN ETHNOLOGY It was here that the buiuals were found. They lay in jar-shaped cavities dug in the hardpmi, which was so solid that there had been no need of strengthening or lining the cists beyond the introduction of a few stone slabs along their loAver sides. The digging had been done with sharp-pointed implements that had left their marks on the sides of the holes. Cist A (fig. 9), the nearest to the front of the cave, was 3 feet 6 inches deep, 3 feet wide, 4 feet long, and had a flat bottom. In it were seven skeletons—four adults and three children. Skeleton 1 was the topmost, an adult female, flexed on the left side and covered with rotted textile fabric, a bit of which we preserved in paraffin. About the neck was a string of hemispherical stone beads. No. 2, a O. Fic;. 9.—Plan of cave, Sayodneechee.

On the left pelvic bone there was a part of a twined bag that had formed a portion of the wrapping; this also was preserved in paraffin. The skeleton itself was too much decayed for removal. No. 3, an adult of doubtful sex, was flexed on the left side partly underlying No. 2. A bowl-shaped basket, greatly decayed, was inverted over the head, and a string of dark beads with a few green beads as a pend- ant (see pi. 70, 1) was about the neck. At the hips was a deposit of five chipped points, and at the side of the head were small plates of shell perforated for suspension. The skeleton was badly rotted, but the skull, which was not in contact with the bones of other skeletons, was in good condition. In front of the face of skeleton 2, and therefore just below the hips of No. 1 and over the elbows of No. 3, were the.
