On this jar the design is a band composed of rectangular and triangular units. The elements are parallel and squiggled lines. The units are not balanced in the band. There are four rectangular ones and three that are triangular. The four occur in consecutive order, filling about two-thirds of the band, and the three are grouped together around one of the lug handles.

Al- though different in concept, it is unquestionably of the same design style as that illustrated by the canteen illustrated in figures 25 and 26. The present example is probably a somewhat earlier form. The flat-topped seed jar illustrated in figure 32 shows the body band and orifice area manner of decoration. The band around the body is one containing four units in which opposed-dotted triangles and parallel lines are the chief elements. The upper left and lower right corners in each are filled with plain triangles, while two rows.
