Illustrated Catalogue Of The Collections Obtained From The Indians Of New Mexico Part 15

1121. (40767). Shown in Fig. 469, bearing three young owls on its back.

1122. (41043).

1123, 1124. 1123, (40066), Fig. 465, and 1124, (40739), Fig. 464. Two owl-shaped water vessels from Zuni.

Duck-shaped canteens, _e-yah-me-he-to_, are usually represented in a swimming posture, without feet, though occasionally the standing posture is adopted. The feather decorations are not so generally used as on the owls; several specimens bear on the back or sides the figure of the grotesque bird with spread wings. These specimens, like the owl images, have an orifice on the top of the head as though intended for water vessels, but are seldom used as such at the present time.

1171. (41222). The Big Horn (_Ovis montana_), _Ha-li-tku_. This is the only specimen obtained and is a very rude figure, not easily recognizable.

1172. (41224). The Lynx, _Te-pi_. Orifice in the top of the head.

Decorated with spots.

1173. (41225). The Horse, _Tusch_. Decorations, spots, and lines representing hair. A very poor figure; without the name would be unrecognizable.

1174. (41226). Man on horseback, _I-mal-to-yi_. The figure of the man is evidently intended to represent a Mexican, as shown by the ordinary hat and clothing. The saddle is represented, but there is no bridle or other trappings.
