At the time of the finding of the bird pipe (No. 593) there was much discussion as to whether it was a bird or a mastodon. The effigy is exceedingly rude and, on that account, some were inclined to believe it to be a mastodon. However, we are of the opinion that it is only a bird. The frog is an excellent sculpture, weighs a trifle over five pounds, and is cut from fine-grained sandstone, while the bird is executed in red standstone. The frog is quite a trav FIGURE XLIII.

Most of the large effigy pipes have been carried east or abroad, and we may consider ourselves fortunate in having secured several of them.* The three copper relics shown in Figure XLIII come from Warren County, Ohio, and belong to the private collection of * A large owl pipe, a fox, and a bear are in the University collection. the writer. Quite a number of pieces of copper have been found in Warren County. All of the specimens (an axe to the left, a needle, 842, and a spear-head, 547), are formed of lump copper, hammered in the cold state. In the axe and the spearhead, one can plainly detect the edges of the sheet copper which has been added to thicken the spear through the middle. It may be well to remark in this connection that, while the Field, the Peabody and the Smithsonian Museums and several other institutions have some thousands of specimens of Ohio copper, we have but eighty-four pieces in our entire museum. Figure XLIV shows a sculptured disk, found in the City of Mexico at the time of the Civil war, by Mr. Anderson. Photographs have been sent east to our American scholars, in order that the full meaning of the inscription might be secured. The stone is about an inch in thickness and upon the reverse has three deep holes forming a triangle in the center. Figure XLV represents a terra cotta head found on a village FIGURE XLIV.
