«There are two or three specimens of a much more ancient type. One of 
these (4337) is the ectocuneiforme of a Deer as large, I imagine, as the Wa-

Bear or Hyena ; and the third (,42,) is a single-fanged tooth of singular 
form, which may by remote possibility be a premolar of a large Bear. These 
specimens are in a widely different mineral condition from that of the human 
and ovine remains.

disposed of by cremation, such as were met with in the Charcoal Cave *; nor 
were there any marks of teeth on the bones such as might have been ex- 
pected had they been taken thither by a carnivorous animal, or the relics of
