Incised lines fol- lowing very roughly the painted design (Boas Album, pi. 63, 14). The design is in red and is very badly drawn. The incised lines follow to some extent the outlines of the painted design. This type is uncommon here, but it is found at Teotihuacan. I am inclined to place this in the Toltec culture. There is some (][uestion, however, whether it does not belong to the Archaic ; A few pieces found at Zacatenco would strengthen this latter view. There is also an Aztec type of red polished ware Avith black design showing incised lines following the design (p. 53). i. Culhuacan gray. A dull gray Avare Avith a design of lines in- cised over the upper part of the l)owl (fig. 6, and Boas Album, pi. 32). This is a very com- mon type at Culhuacan. Type III^ C unci - form. — The marking covers the Avhole pot and is made Avith a flat or i:)ointed stick in the soft clay (Boas Album, pi. 59, 14). This type is very uncommon here. It probably belongs to the Archaic culture. In some cases the marking seems to have been made by a comb. There is an allied type wdiere the marking is found only on the bottom of the inside of flat dishes (Boas Album, pi. 38, 3). This is clearly Archaic. Tyjje IT., Textile marked.—This type (fig. 7) is found only in small shards. The shapes of the pieces could not be determined. The. Please note that these images are extracte
