Tlie Stone Ages of South Africa. 81 



included it iu the South African palaeolithic. On Mr. Eobertson's 

 evidence, pounders of the type of our dune-middens and caves have 

 also been found in the limestone. These I have not seen, and the 

 presence of a vlei may account for their occurrence there, even at a 

 depth that is, unfortunately, not stated. 



But Mr. Eogers' evidence is that of a professional man, and, 

 whether or not the mullers and the flake are contemporaneous, 

 we have at least one example of great antiquity clearly established 

 in the situation in which the said flake was found.
