 grained sandstone. 



1440-1447. 1440, (42327); 1441,(42328); 1442, (42329); 1443, (42330);

1449. (42336.) Grooved maul of very coarse-grained sandstone ; short 

 and thick. « 



1450. (42337). Fig. 506. Grooved maul of compact sandstone. The 

 body of the maul is almost round, though the cut makes it appear 

 flat. Several such specimens were collected, and in aU instances 

 they show that they have been better preserved than the axes. 

 This is probably due to the fact that their shape adapts them to 

 grinding foods and grain, and hence they are not used for splitting 

 or cutting.

 twelve inches long, and tapers gradually from the broad edge to 

 the top.
