 Title:  Earl Morris Papers: Notes on Miscellaneous Artifacts ead 
 Date(s):  unknown 
 Abstract:  A bound volume of 108 pages, mostly written or typed on re-used paper, comprising Earl Morris's notes on miscellaneous artifacts from the Prayer Rock District. Artifacts are catalogued individually by number and described; drawings by Robert Burgh appear on undersize pages. The volume includes two catalogue number series: items in the 29.1 series may be from the 1929 Bernheimer Expedition (catalogue numbers for reconnaissance trips were preceded by the year); items in the 350000 series are from an unknown source loaned to Earl Morris for study purposes. The drawing on page 76 is unnumbered but the illustration matches the description of item 350436; the drawing on page 81 is labeled No. 350466 but no such item is listed and it matches the description of item 350446. The volume concludes with three supplementary sections: work sheets by Elizabeth Morris (p. 102), notes on possible source of artifacts dated March 27, 1957 by E. Morris (p. 105), notes on unpublished pottery, Pit III (p. 107), and notes on possible source of artifacts dated October 6, 1957 by N. A. R. (p. 108). Table of contents and pagination were added by J. Barr, Arizona State Museum Library, July 17, 1968.
