Near the bottom of the central cache pit in Work 5, an extensive layer of red and yellow flint chips was encountered. Double handfuls of flint and chert chips were found in various places in the mounds. Pieces of pumice-stone were often met with in the different village sites. They were used, apparently, as whetstones to sharpen bone awls, and are sometimes deeply grooved as a result of such grinding. Other stones were also used for this purpose. Plate XXXII, fig. e, shows a rasp for smoothing ...arrowshafts. It is made of a coarse yellow sandstone. It is very similar to rasps found among the Omaha. Pebbles showing at the ends an abraded surface were com- mon objects in the mounds and cache pits. These were chip- ping stones and were used in working flint and chert. They were of various kinds of stone, red jasper, diorite, quartzite and sandstone being noted. Water-worn boulders, seldom over six inches in diameter, were common in all parts of the site. They were such as could be picked up on the prairie or buttes.
