ON, THE LAKE VILLAGE AT GLASTONBURY. 421 



18. Vertebra, fractured. Found outside the border-palisading to the N.E. of 

 Mound 67, 1895. 



19. Complete human skull and jaw. Found outside the border-palisading N.E. 

 of Mound 67, 1893. The skull had a tranverse cut across the occipital bone, which 

 was found lowermost when discovered. 



40. Several fragments of human skull. Mound 73. 



. Animal Bones. (N.) 



A great quantity of animal remains was collected from the 1906 excavations, 

 including a small skull of horse and a skull of JBos longifrons found in the peat 

 outside the palisading to the W.S.W. of the centre of Mound 76 ; it belonged to an 

 animal about the height of our Alderney cow (3 feet 10 inches at shoulder). Two 

 or three jaws of cat were found in Mound 74 ; and in Mound 73 a piece of bone 

 gnawed by a dog. 



Pottery. (P.) 



133. Ornamental pottery. Found outside the palisading N. of Mound 67, 1895. 



173. The greater part of an ornamented globular bowl, height 5 inches, ext. 

 diam. at rim 5J inches, max. ext. diam. Gjf inches. Ornamented with a band of 

 decoration (width 2j inches) just below the rim, consisting of rows of chevrons, 

 pointing downwards, filled with crossed lines parallel to the sides. On one side 

 near the base are three perforations (diam. 6 inches), triangularly arranged, probably 

 intended for straining honey. Mound 67. 



174. Rim and base of a globular bowl, found in many fragments. On the bulge 

 of the vessel is a band of decoration (width ly inch) in characteristic Late-Celtic 

 style, of double-lined wave pattern, with indented dots and circles between the lines 

 at intervals of from 1^ to 2 J inches apart. Mound 68. 



17.5. Fragments of the base (diam. 2 j inches) of a Raman vessel of thin, hard, 

 lathe-turned grey ware, found scattered about at the base of tlie ' llood-soil ' covering 

 Mound 68, one piece being found in the black earth belonging jointly to the first 

 and second floors. It is quite probable that these fragments belong to the same pot 

 as the pieces of grey ware represented by 'iinds' P 132 (1895) and P 166 (1905); 

 indeed, parts of P 132 and P 166 have now been found to join. 



176. The greater part of an ornamented hand-made pot, found in three large 

 pieces. The sides are slightly convex, but the rim is decidedly incurved. Height 

 of vessel 5f inches, ext. diam. at rim o\ inches, max. diam. 6 inches, diam. of 

 base 3§ inches. In the middle of the base is a large rounded hole, probably for 

 straining honey from the comb. S. of Mound 67. 



177. Handle or loop of a hand-made pot wilh cylindrical aperture 11 mm. in 

 diam. ; width of projection 12 mm. W.N.W. of Mound 74. Handles of pots are rare 

 in the Village. 



178. Fragment of a rim (depth 2^ inches) of a large pot; probably the deepest 

 rim found in the Village. Mound 76. 



A large quantity of fragments of pottery was found, all of which has been pre- 

 served, as in previous years. As was the case in 1904 and 1905, the number of 

 ornamental fragments was below the average. One ornamental, almost straight- 

 sided, fragment, found to the S.E. of Mound 83, has three cordons in rather slight 

 relief, reminding one of the vases from the Aylesford urn-field (' Archaeologia," 

 vol. Hi.). All the decorated pottery has been repaired, and some of the designs will 

 be figured eventually. Much pottery was found to the S.E. and E.S.E. of Mound 83, 

 including the base and side of a heavy plain pot (height 5f inches, diam. at base 

 4^ inches) and the base of another (diam. at base 4 inches). 



Querns, (Q.) 



l.S. Complete upper stone of a quern. N.W. margin of Mound 67, 1895. 



48. Lower stone of a circular quern, imperfect, having two convex surfaces, one 

 convexity being more pronounced than the other ; max. thickness 7^ inches. There 

 is a hole on both surfaces, one depth 2^ inches, the other 2| inches. More than half 

 of each hole remains, and, viewed from the side of the fracture, it is seen that the 

 holes are not in line by an inch. Both holes are about 2 inches in diam, at the 

 paouth. Mound 68. 



49. Part of the upper stone of a quern. Mound 72,
