KELIQULE AQUITAJNIOE. 



A. PLATE XXXIII. 



In this Plate we have figures of some very interesting specimens of stone work. 

 1. A neat and symmetrical Lance-head (unfortunately broken), dressed on both 

 faces, and rather more oval than those of Laugerie. 2. A sharp-pointed Lance- 

 head (?) or tool, chipped out of a triangular flake. 3. Two pieces of the peculiar 

 Scrapers or Knives (figs. 4 & 6), of semilunar outline, strongly convex on one 

 edge and slightly incurved on the other, such as are common in Denmark, but 

 rare elsewhere. Another specimen, met with in a cave in the Dordogne district, 

 imperfect, and differing from the others by its straighter edge not being incurved, 

 has been presented to the Christy Collection by Mr. John Evans, F.R.S., and is 

 shown in the woodcut (fig. 25, p. 135). This is of greyish-brown, granular, sub- 

 translucent flint, partially weathered with bluish-white mottling, and retaining a 

 whitey-brown patch of the original crust. 4. A piece of stout flake dressed as a 

 Saw or a Comb (for wool, hair, or fibre), and well fitting to the hand. 



Fig. 1. A portion of a carefully dressed, acute-oval Implement or Lance-head of 

 mottled cream-coloured flint, of the same type as those figured in A. Plate IV., 

 but not quite so pointed. 

 From the Gorge d'Enfer. 



Fig. 2. A simple triangular flake of dark-grey, mottled, sponge-bearing flint. 

 Edges minutely jagged, probably by accidental wear and tear. Surface bearing 

 small patches of stalagmitic concretion. 

 From Le Moustier. 



Fig. 3. Irregularly triangular, or shoulder-of-mutton- shaped Implement of dark- 

 grey flint*, narrowed towards the point, and sharpened by careful chipping on 

 one face. 



From Le Moustier. 



Fig. 4. Moiety of a semilunar or sickle-like, neatly dressed, flat Implement of 

 brownish-grey flint, carefully chipped on one face. It is mottled grey by 

 weathering : and the fracture is old ; for its face is equally weathered with the 

 rest of the surface. In the drawing of this imperfect Implement the outline of
