28 SMITHSONIAN MISCELLANEOUS COLLECTIONS VOL. I lO 



45. Lemsa. — On the slopes of the ravine about 300 m. above sea 

 level Mousterian flints were found in a cave and on the edge of the 

 plateau. 



46. Lechkop. — Mousterian flints were collected on the surface of 

 this terrace near Sukhumi by the lAE expedition during 1935. The 

 same type of implements were also found nearby by L. N. Solovev 

 during 1936 on the 10- to 12-m. terrace. 



47. Mokva. — Some characteristic Mousterian flints, including dis- 

 coidal nuclei, were found on the 10- to 12-m. terrace, 2 kilometers 

 from the upper terrace. 



48. Okum. — A large series of Mousterian flints were found on the 

 tea plantations of the State farm "Chai-Gruzia" near Achigvary 

 on the surface of the 8o-m. terrace above the left bank of the Okum 

 River. Among the implements was one finely worked hand ax. The 

 surface of these flint implements bore a characteristic luster and some 

 had traces of iron manganese concretions, which confirms their 

 original location in the ancient horizon. Higher on the same slope 

 typologically older flints were collected. This material was collected 

 by the 1935 lAE expedition. 



49. Ochemchiri. — Characteristic Upper Mousterian flints were 

 found at the edge of the third (35-m.) terrace, i kilometer from 

 Ochemchiri on the paved highway along the Sukhumi River. Lying 

 partly in situ in the loam with iron manganese concretions, the flints 

 appeared dark red with a brilliant, dark-brown patina. The first 

 finds were made by L. N. Solovev. During 1934-1935 this site was 

 explored by an lAE expedition with the participation of two geologists, 

 G. F. Mirchink and V. I, Gromov. 



50. Tabachnaia. — Mousterian flints were found near here. (See 

 No. II.) 



51. Tskhiri.— Some Mousterian flints were found by the 1935 lAE 

 expedition on the surface of the 30-m. terrace. 



52. Esheri. — A few Mousterian flints were collected on the sur- 

 face of the eroded 80-m. terrace in a stratum of pebbles near this 

 village by an lAE expedition during 1935. 



53. lAgish. — A few Mousterian flints were collected by the 1936 

 expedition from lAE on the elevated plateau 450-500 m. above sea 

 level. 



54. I Ashtukh.— Mousterian flints were found here. (See No. 14.) 



55. Rukhi I. — On the low ground, which is flooded by the Rukhi 

 River in the spring, about 6 kilometers from Zugdidi, A. N. Kalan- 

 dadze discovered during 1936 typologically Mousterian flakes. 



56. Teshik-Tash. — This cave, situated on the northwestern slope
