DESCRIPTIONS OF THE PLATES BONE IMPLEMENTS, ETC. [B. XIV.] IOI 



Fig. 2. Another Harpoon-head, with only three pairs of barbs, the lowest pair 

 opposite, the other barbs alternate ; they have been subconical, but are broken, 

 as is also the long tapering point of the Implement. The barbs are deeply and 

 doubly grooved ; and the stem bears many flexuous and obliquely longitudinal 

 grooves and notches. 



Fig. 3. A large specimen of the same type as fig. 1, but evidently much shortened 

 by ancient fracture and repointing. The grooved ornament is bold and deep, 

 especially on the stem; and the tapering butt, with its knobs, is neatly 

 shaped. 



Fig. 4. This is a longer, more slender, and rarer form than the foregoing ; it has 

 its original long tapering end and suddenly sharp point, and only three pairs of 

 alternating, single-grooved barbs. Some faint traces of oblique grooves remain 

 on the stem. 



Fig. 5. This specimen, broken at each end and deprived of some of its barbs, had 

 on either side numerous, sharp, single-grooved, close-set, and strongly recurved 

 barbs. The groove on each barb was joined at its base by an oblique groove, 

 varying in length, from barb to barb, and thus altogether constituting an irre- 

 gular zig-zag lateral line.

Fig. 6. The long, tapering, sharp point of a slender Harpoon-head, similar in type 

 to fig. 4, but having its barbs far more numerous, close-set, and opposite. 



Figs. 7-10. Other fragments of smaller barbed Weapon-heads, of the same type 

 as fig. 4. Figs. 7 and 8 appear to have been repointed.
