"Diamond" and Horns(?) on Big Snake head, Peck Hill in Woodbridge CT??
From Tim MacSweeney
[PWAX says: Tim may be thinking this represents Unktena (various spellings) the Water Spirit with a pearl (or diamond) on its head. Quartz is not common in Woodbridge CT.]

Ulstĭtlĭ'
“The horns and crystal on the Uktena’s head are called ulstĭtlĭ', literally “it is on its head,” but when they are in the hands of the medicine person it becomes ulûñsû'tĭ, or “transparent.” So considered together, the changing names, and contexts for Uktena horns and crystals imply that the thoughts on the head of the snake became transparent to the person who possessed it (Page 10).”
