Note: This document is taken from the Sixteenth Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology to the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, 1894-95, Government Printing Office, Washington, 1897, pages 73-198.

Transcriber's note:

Several Figures, with their captions, were printed sideways in the original book. Their position has been retained for this e-text, rotated 180° where necessary to keep all oriented in the same direction (top of Figure on the left). Each of these Figures links to a separate illustration at the same scale but horizontally positioned.

A few typographical errors have been corrected. They have been marked in the text with mouse-hover popups. The spelling "bowlder" is standard for this publication.

Brackets within quotations are in the original.
