Extract

Human figurines in the Basketmaker III collections resulting from excavations in the Prayer Rock district of northeastern Arizona by the Bernheimer Expedition and Carnegie Institution of Washington are of two classes; those made of clay and those fashioned from vegetable substances. The former have been described from several localities. The latter have not been previously recorded. Of the clay variety there are, whole or fragmentary, 23 representatives; of the vegetal, 4.
