B. BONE IMPLEMENTS, &c, 



B. PLATE XXIII. 



A selection of imperfect, ornamented, subcylindrical Implements or Weapons, 

 mostly of antler, fig. 2 only being of bone. A raised fillet, variously sculptured, 

 is the characteristic feature in most of them. Laugerie and La Madelaine are the 

 chief sources of such specimens. 



Fig. 1. A fragment, nearly round in section, ornamented on one side with two 

 pairs of longitudinal grooves and a linear series of angles on a raised fillet 

 between them. The other side is bare and rotted. 

 From Laugerie Basse. 



Figs. 2 a, b. A portion of a small bone Implement, fluted longitudinally on two 

 faces; on one side (fig. 25) the furrow is narrow; on the other (fig. 2) it is as 

 broad as the bone. The floor of each furrow is crossed with numerous, oblique, 

 parallel, incised lines. 

 From Laugerie Basse. 



Fig. 3. The edge of a conical fragment ornamented with a series of equal, deep- 

 cut, close-set, chevrons on a raised fillet. 

 From ? 



Fig. 4. The edge of another fragment with parallel grooves and a series of oblique 

 notches on the raised fillet between them. 

 From ? 



Fig. 5. An imperfect tapering Dart-head (?), with a raised, riband-like ornament, 

 curving round towards its point. This scroll-like fillet is vaguely notched. 

 From ? 



Fig. 6. The edge of a fragment similar to fig. 4, cut into a raised riband-like 

 border, with a wavy incised line, and some short, parallel, obliquely transverse 

 notches, along its centre.
