Height of specimen, 4 inches (10. 2 cm. ). The third specimen (c) differs slightly in that the neck is more elongate and the head is modeled in higher relief. The ears are of the same type as those of specimen b, and the eyes and mouth are represented by deeply incised lines. The nose stands out promi- nently from the face. Height of specimen, 5^ inches (14. 5 cm. ). A simple water vessel, derived from the gourd, or calabash, can be reconstructed from the sherd shown in plate vin, a. This speci...men is of light-brown clay, is well modeled, and is without ornamentation. Height of specimen, 4^ inches (11. 4 cm. ). The gourd motif appears to be the fundamental form of the ancient water vessels from Santo Domingo. The tops of more elaborate vessels, of which the form of the body is derived from the gourd, are shown in plate vin, b, c, d, and in fig- ure 26. These sherds may be described as belonging to the double- gourd type of vessels, the body of the jar representing one gourd, while the top simulates a smaller gourd superimposed on the larger one.
