. Porto Rican elbow-stones in the Heye museum, with discussion of similar objects elsewhere; . rms of the elbow-stones may be fluted orgirt with grooves (g), which are not represented in collars. For convenienceof study the two V f> arms of an elbow-stone (fig. 117) maybe designated asright and left (ra, la) , and their pointof junction the an-gle or elbow. Oneof the arms is eitherdecorated or has a panel; the endsof both may be fluted, while theirgeneral form tapers more or lessuniformly. One or both arms mayhave a groove on the outside calledthe sulcus {s), which, when situatedon the paneled arm, extends length-wise from the panel border to theend of the arm. A cross-section ofan elbow-stone near the boss follow-ing the elbow band1 is, as a rule-about the same as that near thepointed pole of an ovate slendercollar. The surface of an elbow-stone, especially the boss, is gen-erally rough, but several examples have the remaining parts finelypolished. So close are the general likenesses between the boss and thearms or shoulders of collars and elbow-stones that an identification. Fig. 117.—Elbow-stone in the HeyeMuseum.

In order toexplain minor differences in the two types, it is held by some ofthose who entertain this opinion that a broken collar has been sub-sequently fashioned into an elbow-stone and its surface redecoratedto fit it for secondary use. So radically different, however, are thecarvings and symbols on the surfaces of these two types of objectsthat this conclusion seems unreasonable. Other archeologists believe that the elbow-stone is a fragmentof a type of collar differently ornamented from any that have beenfound entire. The resemblances are believed by them to be closeenough to indicate identity and the differences a
