Fig. 3. A Lower Canine Tooth of a Wolf, similarly bored through its root. In this 

 case the hole is more neatly rounded, and appears to have been made by a 

 hand-drill worked steadily with long-continued half turns of the wrist. 

 From La Madelaine. 



Fig. 4. An Upper Canine Tooth of a Wolf, pierced at the end of the root. The 

 hole was evidently made with a cutting-implement worked first on one face and 

 then on the other until the elliptically hollow borings met in a small round 

 hole in the middle. 



From the Gorge d'Enfer, a Station which we believe to be older than those 

 above mentioned. 



Fig. 5. The Upper Canine Tooth of a Fox, bored at the end of the root, which, 

 however, had previously been pared down on its two faces, rendering the work 

 of perforation more easy. 

 From La Madelaine. 



Figs. 6 a, 6 b. An Incisor Tooth of a large Ox (Aurochs ?), with the root cut and 

 bored. The two sides of the root have been pared down on its two opposite 

 sides with a very sharp implement ; and two holes have been pierced through 

 it, one near the end, and the other near the crown of the tooth. The mouths 

 of the holes are not conical ; hence probably the root was pared down after 

 it had been pierced. Six transverse marks have been cut at intervals along 

 one edge of the root (that shown in fig. 6i). As several Bovine Incisors, 

 cut and bored in a similar manner, were found at the same Station and rather 

 near together, it is probable that they were intended to be strung in a row on 

 two cords for some ornamental purpose. 

 From Laugerie Basse. 



Fig. 7. Another Bovine Incisor, in all respects worked like the last, and with the 

 same number of grooves on the edge, and from the same place. 



Fig. 8. An Incisor Tooth of a Ruminant, of the genus Copra (Ibex ?), having its 

 root pierced near the end with a hole evidently made by boring from both sides. 

 From La Madelaine. 



Fig. 9. A middle Incisor of a Reindeer, pierced near the middle of the root with 

 a hole made like the last. 

 From Laugerie Basse.
