to the back wall the distance was 1'70 M., to the door opening 

 Г30М.; the latter looked towards the south and was 050 M . broad. 

 Some flat stones for lamps were found both in the middle of the 

 platform edge and to the left, inside the doorway. A very conspicuous 

 piece of white quartz (cf. p. 197) lay on the floorplace between the 

 middle lamp-stones and the door opening. In the middle of the 

 doorway lay a flat stone like a doorstep. (Polar bear, reindeer). 



Under the north end of the abrupt, rocky slope we found a 

 small, circular tent-ring (213), |Г25 M. in diameter. The platform 

 edge, which consisted of a close row of small stones, lay in the 

 direction north to south and divided the ring into two equal parts. 

 In the periphery ordinary and moderately large stones had been 

 used. The door opening was 045 M. broad and looked towards the 

 east; on each side it had a stone 035 M. long, which formed a 

 passage leading out from the ring. Just inside the doorway to the 

 right, the stones of the wall bent outwards for a length of 050 M., 

 so that a curved niche 035 M. deep was formed. The platform had 

 been better levelled than the rest of the floorplace. 



On a level part between this tent-ring and Baadskæret we 

 found a long row of stones (214), which extended in the direction 

 S. E. — N. W. On June 6th 1908 the snow permitted me to see 

 ca. 45 meters of this row. About every eighth meter some few 

 stones lay outside the row and these have probably been built up 

 on the top of one another but were now fallen. At one place these 

 stones were replaced by a large stone, which lay in series with the 

 others. The stones were of medium size and lay quite loose. They 

 were closest at the S. E. end of the row, which continued in under 

 the snow; possibly this structure has been intended for the capture 

 of hares, strips of hide with hanging loops being suspended between 

 the built up stones'. 



At Wendels Pynt we found 8 tent-rings, 1 shelter, 1 permanent 

 and 1 temporary meat store. 



On the rocky knoll which lies just opposite Baadskæret, we 

 found a shelter (215) right up on the top. It was four-sided with 

 rounded corners, 1-75 M. long in N. W. — S. E. direction and 1-25 

 M. broad. The door opening looked towards the S. E. and was 

 045 M. broad. The shelter was placed over a rocky cleft in which 

 some earth had collected and the floorplace was partly covered 

 with flat stones, partly with soft grass and moss. From this we 

 had quite an excellent view over the water, right from Maroussia 

 to Snenæs. (Fjord seal). 



East from this shelter, almost at the top, there was a small,
