750 EEPORT OF NATIONAL MUSEUM, 1904. 



Plate 2. 



Arrowheads, many of new anu nitherto unknown types. Nearly all are exquis- 

 itely worked along the edges. No. 27 was found with 19 similar ones in a heap, 

 partly covered by blown sand and may be the contents of the same quiver. Nos. 27,- 

 28, 29 are about one-fourth inch in thickness, and are of a light pink color. 



Plate 3. 



Further types of arrows of unusually large size and varied shapes. Some resem- 

 ble examples from Ireland. 



Plate 4. 



Nos. 97 to 107 are additional types of arrows. No. 107 must he compared with the 

 Solutreen javelin heads or " Pointes a cran " figured in Le Prehistoric pie (p. 181) 

 and with those in Plates 7 and 8. Nos. 108 and 109 are of crystal, the only examples 

 not included in my discovery. They are in the Cairo Museum. 



Plate 5. 



Nos. 112, 114, L16j 117, 120 are flat on the underside and show the conchoidal frac- 

 ture or bulb of percussion. The rest are worked on both sides; having a natural 

 butt end, however, they might resemble de Mortillet's Mousterian or middle-paleo- 

 lithic pointes a mam (p. 163). 



Plate 6. 



No. 122 is one of a large number of bent flakes, polished and worked to a scraping 

 edge on one side and peculiar to the Fayum. Nos. 123, 125, 126 another Fayum 

 type. They resemble adze blades for working wood and hollowing out trees for 

 canoes. Nos. 124, 125, 127, 128, 129 are knives with a cutting edge all round and an 

 angle for scraping "grattoirs concaves." No. 130 exactly resembles de Mortillet's 

 "double grattoir Solutreen" in the Musee de Saint Germain. These are not exclu- 

 sively paleolithic. Evans figures one from Bridlington. No. 131 is one of two 

 implements found which resemble a gravel-drift paleolith. 



Plate 7. 



These implements resemble the "pointes en feuille de laurier" figured in Le Pre- 

 historique on pages 181, 627, and 029. They belong to the later paleoliths or Solu- 

 treen epoch. These forms drift insensibly into the "Pointes en feuille de saule" 

 and "pointes a. cran" of the same epoch. Nos. 159 and 160 resemble the remarkable 

 crescent-shaped implements on Plate 8, hut are straight. 



Plate 8. 



Nos. 172, 173, large crescent-snaped "pointes a cran," use unknown. No. 178 is a 

 "lame pointue." Nos. 174 to 183 are peculiar Fayum arrowheads or javelin heads 

 called "pointes a cran" and are somewhat waterworn and polished by friction and 

 use. No. 184 in Plate 8 to 198 on Plate. 9 are saws, now thought by M . Maspero and 

 others to have been fixed in wooden handles like a sickle. Some are not toothed, 

 and No. 191 is a rare form. No. 182 is a saw, not toothed, hut probably equally 

 effective. 



Plate 9. 



Figures 194 to 198 are the continuation of the series of saws snown on Plate 8. 

 No. 198 strongly resembles the implement on Plate 11 (No. 246), but the latter is very 

 carefully worked and not toothed. Nos. 199 and 200 are implements purchased 

 from Arabs and were apparently reworked by them to present a more salable appear-
