DESCEIPTIONS OF THE PLATES STONE IMPLEMENTS. [A. XXII.] 107 



A. PLATE XXII. 



Fig. 1. A large, highly arched flake of drab-coloured, granular, opake flint ; care- 

 fully rounded by chipping at one end (uppermost in the figure), and dressed at 

 the other to an obliquely rounded solid edge (not seen in the figure), which has 

 been crushed, possibly by use. One of the lateral edges is roughly indented, 

 apparently by accidental blows; the other edge is partly untouched, and in 

 part affected by minute chipping, such as may have been caused by partial use 

 in scraping. 



From Laugerie Haute. 



Fig. 2. A large, thick, simple flake of brown subtranslucent flint, weathered 

 greyish, and retaining some of the original crust. It is roughly triangular in 

 section for more than half its length, where the ridge-face has three facets. 

 The remaining portion has externally the irregularly rounded outline of the 

 original block. One edge is almost smooth ; the other is somewhat chipped by 

 accident, and possibly by use. 

 From Laugerie. 



Fig. 3. The pointed end of a large thick flake of brown subtranslucent flint, 

 triangular in section, somewhat weathered. Considerable pains have been 

 expended in chipping this massive pick-like implement into shape. The 

 remainder of the instrument, broken off by an old fracture, can be only a 

 subject for conjecture. 

 From Laugerie Haute. 



* We have not been able to measure the thickness of the butt-end.
