top side of largest mound two years ago for treasure. Near the bottom a number of clay images, like those found in burial places described, & some obsidian implements were found & the work abandoned. The mound seems to be about half earth & half rough loose lava rock of the locality intermixed. Externally the [[strikethrough]] earth [[/strikethrough]] mounds show only the loose lava rocks. 

The mounds are nearly circular (as are the surrounding rings & walls) and are rounded cones.

To the N. & NE view the rough rocky hill slope covered with bushes. To E. [[strikethrough]] are [[/strikethrouhg]] is a [[strikethrough]] cleared [[/strikethrough]] smooth area cleared of stones & a smaller area of same on W. To W. & S. the hill slopes rapidly from the monuments to the valley. I give the measurements to the sketch & make no effort to draw to scale. The walls about ring are ruinous & overgrown with vegetation hard to distinguish & never more than roughly formed of the rough loose boulders of lava. No sign of sculptural stone of any kind is visible. 

The wall of ring in second circle is thickened to form 5 chambers on S.E. side as shown.
