Text Appearing Before Image:
rk on the Antiquities of Wisconsin I amindebted for the outlines of Figs. 5 and 6, does not doubt but thatthey were all constructed by the Indians, and are of the characterof totems. Dr. Phene, however, who has carefully investigated thesubject, is of opinion that some of them were meant to representdeities, while others were sepulchral, and some, again, intended aslandmarks. A few typical forms are given on p. 68. Of these thealligator mound (Fig. 4) measures 250ft. x 120ft., not includingthe heap of calcined stones projecting from the body. The beavermound (Fig. 5), 140ft. x 45ft. And the buffalo mound (Fig. 6),108ft. x 52ft. I may add that these mounds are represented aswhite upon black in my woodcuts for clearness sake, but that it isnot intended to convey thereby the idea that they are differentiatedin point of colour from the surrounding surface in the way that ourwhite horses are, this not being, so far as I am aware, the case. VOL. XXV.—NO. LXXIII. p 66 While Horse Jottings.
