Farther aloDg, and over an extended plain are seen, like gophir hiUs, their excava- tions, ancient and recent, and on the surface of t...he rocks, various marks and their sculptured hieroglyphics — their wakons, totems and medicines — subjects numerous and interesting for the antiquary or the merely curious.
