B. PLATE XXIX. 



Some imperfect and unfinished Harpoon-heads, cut out of Reindeer antler. 



Fig. 1. Fragment of a long-pointed specimen. The bases of three, doubly grooved 

 barbs remain ; some irregular faint grooves mark the stem. 

 From ? 



Fig. 2. An unfinished weapon. The cutting of four barbs was begun uniformly 

 on both faces at one edge. Compare fig. 4, B. Plate XXI. 

 From La Madelaine ? 



Fig. 3. The lower portion of an Harpoon-head, retaining the bases of four grooved 

 barbs, and having the stem ornamented, on one face, with a pattern of ten 

 nearly symmetrical notches, three being straight, successive, and median, 

 flanked with three oblique corresponding notches on one side, and with 

 four smaller oblique subparallel notches on the other. Compare fig. 4, B. 

 Plate XXVII. 

 From La Madelaine ? 



Fig. 4. A small and repointed weapon, retaining only three grooved barbs and an 

 indication of another. A longitudinal groove and the trace of another remain 

 on the stem (compare fig. 1, B.Plate XXVII.). The apparently intentional 

 oblique notch, cut across the butt just above the collar, is alluded to at page 194 

 as being probably an Owner-mark. 

 From La Madelaine. 



Fig. 5. This (figured upside down) is apparently an unfinished weapon, or rather 

 one badly begun and cast aside. The pointed end is analogous to the usual 

 conical butt, with its knobs, marked out by the two large notches, above which 

 the material was not reduced, though some unskilled hand began to mark out 

 the place of some barbs on the ill-shaped stem. 

 From La Madelaine.
