The peal contains Dulichium and Picea (the species (bund ure given on 

 |). 200); in the transition laver and in the peal itself were found — in 

 addition to ;i neolithic stone-axe :i number of eoliths, partly percuteurs, 

 partlj racloirs, bul none of them specially characteristic. <>n pp. 202—203 is

Interglacial deposit at Ejstrup. 



(Interglacial Gytjeaflejring ved Ejstrup.) 



Ejstrup lies ca. 7 Km wesl of Kolding; the locality lies on a terrace in 

 the valley of the Kolding River. Fig. 25, p. 2u7 shows one of the sections 

 (Profile Ah li-s. 26 29 the other (Profile B). In Profde A were the following 



Invers: 



'A— I m. stratified terrace sand. 

 O.i -2.i - (above) stone-free clay, 



0—7 - brown gytje, with humous sand laver, 

 1—2 - (below) stone-free clay, stratified, 

 0— x - gravel or sand. 



Moraine clay, only observed in the western end of the section. 



The borings and excavations showed that the stone-free, stratified clay 

 underneath the gytje contained polar piants (Dryas octopetala, Salix polaris 

 etc), whilst the gytje contained the usual interglacial flora, with Picea and 

 Carpinus predominant. A complete list of all the animals and piants found 

 in the different lavers is given on pp. 227 — 231. Of special interest is the 

 discovery of Cervus dama in the humous sand in the gytje, already men- 

 tioned by II. Winge (1904). 



The whole deposit of clay, gytje and clay is plainly a continuous fresh- 

 water deposit, laid down during an interglacial period. 



The Furien Group of Islands. 



Plant remains have been found in various freshwater lavers of the Ecm 

 deposits; these have been described by me in Victor Madsen, V. Nokdmann 

 & N. Hartz: »Eem-Zonerne« (1908, p. 105 et seq.). 



Sealand. 



In 1895 a peal deposit under moraine clay, prohahly a detached mass of 

 peat, was found in a brickwork pit at Tjornegaard, at Gjentofte near Copen- 

 hagen; I)r. Gunnar Andersson made an investigation of this peat in 1895, and 

 the results are shown on pp. 241—215. 



At Grevinge in Odsherred »a quite thin, peat-like laver in ca. 8 m. 

 depth, under various lavers of clay, marl and sand« was found containing 

 a number of arctic plant remains (p. 245—246).
