migration of these people, and ideas
can be formulated as to the direction
from which their migration took place.
Later Investigations will show, 1t is
hoped, the origin of these prehistoric
people ultimately.
Prospecting upon the top of high
mesa one day, where the vast country
was visible in the clear atmosphere
of New Mexico for miles and miles
around, Mr.. Nelson happened to dis
cover a stone lion. which was lying
in the middle of circular ruins of
stone structure. 1t was not far from
Cochiti and close to the Rio Grande.
The lion was about five feet long and
carved out of volcanic tufa, unique
type of early sculpture. Several stone
idols were found by the archeologist,
one with a melancholy face, in relief,
and another at San Lazaro. grotesque
in expression.
Spur of Mesa Fortified.
Mr.. Nelson explored the spur of
mesa at Protero Viejo. Evidently the
early jewellers there fortified the place
against the attack of the enemy. The
mesa itself constituted a natural forth
fication and it was difficult to climb it
from the region below.
Built into the top Of the mesa were
the artificial walls. safeguard
planned by the people who once lived
on the heights For ammunition huge
powders were carried by the mesa
dwellers from the creek below to the
fertilization This type of primitive
ammunition is found" says Mr.. Mel
son, "in several other mesas of New
Mexico"
The ancient dwellers of the region
recently explored by the museums ex-
petition constructed numerous reser-
voirs to preserve the rain water and
to guard against periods Of drought.
Twenty of these early reservoirs were
found in the region between Pecos and
the Rio Grande river south of Santa.
Fe.
Apparently everyone of these an
cient pueblos or villages conserved it's
water supply, judging from evidences
existing today. At one place there was
found the ruin of an old dam some
three hundred feet in length. 1t prob.
ably conserved a considerable body of
water ages ago, as supply for the
ancient race once living there. Much
of the pottery unearthed by the archie
ologist is fragmentary, and it will
prove quite a task to piece some OF
the fragments together. One example.
in particular is a rare old Tanos bowl,
which dates back hundreds of years,
and notwithstanding the flight of
time this piece is in an excellent state
of preservation. 1t is highly priced
by the collector.
Altogether, Mr.. Nelson secured more
than seven hundred archaeological spe-
cimens on his expedition to New Next
co for the museum.
Among the objects reclaimed from
the ruins of the ancient pueblos were
primitive stone axes stones for polish
ing and smoothing the floors of early
apartment houses, knives, stone ham
mers, bone flutes, whistles. beads and
avis for sewing moccasins and many
other crude implements formerly used
by the communal jewellers of New
Mexico.

Hard to Abolish War.

More war than peace has reigned
in the world as far back as records

were 227 years of peace and $3.50
years of war; that is, one year of
peace to Is of war.
