294 KELIQULE AQTJITANICLE. 



Page 40, A. Plate XII., fig. 6. Compare the " Casse-tete," from Cro-Magnon, 

 in ' Mate"riaux,' vol. v. (2 e se"r. vol. i.) p. 167. fig. 16. 



Page 45, B. Plate V. fig. 1 &c. With reference to the dressed pebble and per- 

 forated Teeth and Shells, we may here quote the statement of a writer in the 

 ' Geological Magazine,' vol. iii. 1866, p. 463, who refers to a dressed fossil and 

 some bored Shells from other Cave-deposits. 



" It is interesting to record that, in the cavern of Bruniquel, Dep. Tarne et Garonne, an Oolitic Belemnite, 

 having its sides squared by grinding, was found among the debris ; also an Ammonite and a Gryphaea, 

 probably introduced by children as toys. Perforated recent marine Shells were likewise numerous. These 

 latter are preserved in the British Museum " *. 



Page 45, B. Plate V. fig. 2. For an example of a perforated canine tooth of 

 Bear (?) from Laugerie Basse, see ' Mate>iaux,' vol. v. (2 e ser. vol. i.) 1869, pi. 20. 

 fig. 7, p. 355. 



Page 50, fig. 5. This Arrow-head was from the Tchutski (Tschukses, p. 54) of 

 North-east Asia, who are regarded by some as not being true Esquimaux. 



Page 50, fig. 8. Originally derived from the figure in A. P. Madsen's 'Afbild- 

 ninger af Danske Oldsager og Mindesmserker,' 1862. 



Pages 55 and 58, B. Plate VI. figs. 10-15. See also Keller's ' Lake-dwellings ' 

 &c. (Lee's Translation), pi. 14. figs. 23-25, p. 67, used in fishingf ; and a larger 

 spindle-shaped spillet of antler, pi. 45. fig. 3, p. 151. A double-pointed specimen, 

 somewhat like the last, is figured by E. Massenat (from Laugerie Basse) in the 

 'Mate"riaux,' vol. v. 1869, pi. 20. fig. 8, p. 355; and another, ornamented, ibid, 

 pi. 21. fig. 3, p. 353. But perhaps the last has one face flat, like B. Plate XVIII. 

 figs. 1 & 5, pp. 124, 125. 



For an illustration of the double-pointed spike, lashed on obliquely at the end 

 of a shaft, and thus supplying both point and barb, see Dupont's ' FHomme ' &c., 

 2 me e"dit. 1872, p. 116. fig. 14. Such Dart-heads, consisting of an oblique spike 

 tied on a stick, are used by the Australians (Stokes and Huxley), some South- 

 Americans (T. K. Gay), and others, and were used in the Pile-villages of the 

 Swiss Lakes. See Le Hon's 'L'Homme fossile' &c., 1867, p. 160. See also 

 page 1 24, fig. 2. 



As other analogues in form for these simple two-pointed spikes, we may mention, 

 not only the Skewers used by Butchers, and the coarse Pins used by ancients and 

 moderns, for fastening cloths and skins (of tents, dresses, &c.), but also the Nose- 



* For an account of this Cave see ' Geol. Mag.' vol. i. p. 137, 1864 ; also ' Phil. Trans.' 1869, p. 501. 

 t Tied to the fishing-line by the centre, and wholly covered with the bait, these pins when swallowed by 

 the fish are pulled across the gullet, and thus act as a " hook."
