903. ([39971]). Fig. [442]. A Zuñi clay basket without handles; the form of the margin and inner decorations are unusual, and on this account and the fact that the little water animal does not appear on it, it is probably from some other tribe, though obtained at Zuñi.
904. ([40354]). Fig. [452]. With handles; margin scalloped. The decorations on this basket are unusual. The chief figure and the most interesting one on this entire group of pottery is that of a snake encircling the body of the basket; on the head of which is a feather crest.
905. ([41019]). Fig. [449]. A Zuñi dance basket, one of the most complete in form and decoration in the collection.
