Canis familiaris (Dog). An atlas vertebra and a small 
damaged femur are referable to a small breed of dog. 
The atlas agrees with that of the recent dog in form 
and in the position of the foramina for the spinal nerves 
and arteries. The dimensions of this specimen are :—

Sus scrofa (Pig). This species is represented by a 
fragmentary left astragalus, of which, however, enough 
remains to show its close correspondence with the recent 
form. 
Bos longifrons. A Bovine astragalus of the right side 
is probably referable to this species. The dimensions

Ovis aries (Sheep). This species seems to be repre- 
sented by a fragment of a humerus, and a small first 
phalanx and an ungual phalanx. 
Anser sp. (Goose). The proximal portion of a 
humerus of a bird agrees in form and size with that of the 
goose. 
All the species above enumerated are commonly found 
in Holocene deposits, and call for no comment here.
