Images of black ware; two pieces; a bird on pedestal and a quadruped.

2522-2523. 2522, (39652a); 2523, (39652b).

COLLECTIONS FROM TESUKE.

ARTICLES OF STONE.

_METATES, MORTARS, ETC._

2530. (39809). Stone metate for grinding grain, brown sandstone.

2531. (39810). Quartzitic stone mortar for grinding mineral pigment.

2532. (39811). Quite small mineral pigment mortar of quartz rock.

2534. (42215). Discoidal quartz pounder.

2535. (42341). Fig. 650. Paint mortar. This mortar was made from a somewhat rounded sandstone boulder by grinding out a cavity. In the cut, which was drawn for another purpose, the pestle is represented with a small cup-shaped cavity on one side of it, in which the fluid pigment from the mortar was poured and used with the brush of the artist for decorative purposes. This is the only specimen of the kind in the collection, and the only one found where the pestle combines the cup with it.
