consisted of gravel mixed with earth and was covered hy flat 

 stones. 



In the winter-house 142 were found eggs-shells of terns (038 M. 

 under the ground), walrus, fjord seal and in winter-house 144 

 polar bear. 



In the winter-house 144 we found among other things 2 slate 

 knives, one of which was very large. 



On the islet were also found 4 tent-rings (145) and many tem- 

 porary and permanent meat-stores (146), which were placed in a 

 fissure-like depression. The permanent meat-depots were large and 

 well built. 



This depression may be regarded as a refuse place (147), for 

 whereas the surroundings were barren and stony, this was covered 

 with a copious layer of moss, and in and under this we found 

 pieces of kitchen utensils and broken implements, as well as bones 

 (dog, fjord seal). 



Maroussia may be said to require more examination. 



Кар Christian (lat. 76° 37', long. 18^ 38'). Here we found 2 traps. 



This cape is the south-eastern end of Lille Koldewey and is 

 connected with the remainder of this island by a low-lying part, 

 which to the south continues out in Sonja Havn. 



On the north-west side of the rocky cliff at Кар Christian the 

 traps lay about 10 meters above the sea and ca. 75 meters from 

 the shore; they lay east — west from one another at a distance of 

 ca. 100 meters. 



The one trap (148) was built of fairlj' small stones and was 

 placed on what appeared to be a not very favourable spot. It was 

 much broken down and the falling door as well as most of the 

 covering stones had been removed. The remains of the trap still 

 standing had the dimensions: 044 M. long, 014 M. broad and 019 M. 

 high; it looked as if it had not been longer. 



The second trap (149) lay on a rocky knoll (quartz stratum) 

 and was solidly built of large stones; it was 087 M . long, 014 M. 

 broad and 018 M. high. The covering stones had been in part 

 removed and the falling door, which was of gneiss, 034 M. long, 

 020 M. high and 1-5 cm thick, was moved to the side. 



The traps had the openings towards the land (S. E.). 



Sonja Havn (lat. 76^37', long. 18° 39'). Here we found one 

 trap and some other stone remains. 



Sonja Havn is a natural harbour, which in a W. N. W. direction
