uments peu connus et des sculptures decouvertes depuis un petit nombre d'annees." His letter is in Boban, _Catalogue Raisonne la Collection Goupil_, Tom. ii, p. 207. On the frequent identification of the serpent symbol with the phallus in classical art, consult Dr. Anton Nagele's article, "Der Schlangen-Cultus," in the _Zeitschrift fuer Voelkerpsychologie_, Band xvii, p. 285, _seq._ [50-*] Cf. G. Tarayre, _Exploration Mineralogique des Regions Mexicaines_, p. 233 (Paris, 1869), and _Bulletin de la Societe d'Anthropologie de Paris_, Juin, 1893. [50-[+]] _Sources de l' Histoire Primitive de Mexique_, p. 81. [50-[++]] From _zo_, to join together. Compare my _Essays of an Americanist_, p. 417 (Philadelphia, 1890). [50-Sec.] "El indio Mexicano es todavia idolatra." F. Pimentel, _La Situacion actual de la Raza Indigena de Mexico_, p. 197. [51-*] The "holy souls" who are here appealed to by name are those of deceased _ah-kih_, or priests of the native cult. [55-*] See the _Relation del Auto celebrado en Mexico, ano de 1659_ (Mexico, En la Imprenta del Santo Officio, 1659). [55-[+]] J. B. Carriedo, _Estudios Historicos del Estado Oaxaqueno[TN-17]_, Tom. i, pp. 8, 9 (Oaxaca, 1849). About 1640 a number of Indians in the province of Acapulco were put to death for having buried enchanted ashes beneath the floor of a chapel! (Serna, _Manual de Ministros_, p. 52.)
