side. The stones of the ring were so large, that one man could 

 scarcely have lifted them. (Fjord seal, musk-ox). 



The trap (240) was found 4 meters south of the tent-ring; it was 

 constructed of small stones and was 0'61 M. long. Oil M. broad and 

 018 M. high. The opening looked towards the S. S. W. The falling 

 door, which consisted of a stone-slab 002 M. thick, was moved to 

 the side; the pointed stone in the back wall, on the other hand, 

 was still in its place. 



Four meters south of the trap lay the 2 temporary meat-stores 

 (241). They were ca. 1 M. square and built of large stones. The 

 covering stones, which had been removed, were flat. 



The third, temporary meat-store (242) also had no covering; it 

 lay 5 meters east of the two above-mentioned. It Avas 75 M. square, 

 but was built of stones from a larger meat-store, which had been 



2 M. square and whose outlines could still be seen. (Dog (puppy), 

 walrus, fjord seal, reindeer (cast antler), whale). 



The permanent meat-depot 243, which likewise had no roof, 

 was found 30 meters north of the tent-ring 239; it was 1 M. every 

 w'ay and w^as partly built of flat stones placed on end. (Fjord seal). 



On the north side of the small naze furthest south in Stormbugt 

 1 tent-ring and 3 temporary meat-stores were found. 



The tent-ring (244) was obviously very old and almost circular 

 in form. The platform edge lay in north-south direction and was 



3 M. long. From this the distance to the east wall was Г90 M., to 

 he west wall Г25М.; no doorway could be seen. Flat stones had 



been used in building the tent-ring. 



Further out on the naze we found an open, temporary meat-store 

 (245) of circular form, 1 M. in diameter, and formed of large stones. 



South of the tent-ring, at a distance of 8 meters, we found 2 

 small, temporary meat-stores (246). They lay up against a precipitous 

 cliff. Ribs of a marine animal were found here. 



On the north side of a small naze, just north of that mentioned, 

 we found 3 tent-rings, 1 temporary meat-store and 2 fire-places. 



The two tent-rings (247), which lay at a distance of 3 meters 

 from one another, had a very old appearance. They had two rows 

 of platform stones placed on end; their other stones were small, 

 mostly flat; the floorplace w^as covered with small stones. In the 

 middle of each tent there was a fire-place (248) close up to the 

 edge of the platform. 



The third tent-ring (249) was found 3 meters north of the more 

 northerly of the two just mentioned, ca. 10 meters from the shore 

 and ca. 5 meters above the sea. It lay on pebbly ground and was 

 built of that material.
