xii PROCEEDINGS OF THE GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY. [April I914, 



especially when it was alleged that implements were found in them. 

 At present, they were in the position in Suffolk of not knowing 

 what was meant by 'Middle Glacial' : in fact, there was a possibility 

 that it did not exist. Various deposits of Upper Glacial and even 

 post- Chalky Boulder- Clay age had been mapped under this name. 

 Of what age, then, were the supposed implements from the ' Middle 

 Glacial ' ? 



Finally, the speaker wished to urge caution upon Suffolk archaeo- 

 logists, and pleaded that they should study carefully the elementary 

 geology of their district before indulging in the misstatements 

 which had been so frequent in recently-published archaeological 

 papers, and were in danger of bringing the science into disrepute. 



In addition to the exhibits described on pp. ii-ix, the following 

 specimens were shown : — 



Stone from the Sinai Peninsula, 70 miles south of Suez and 

 ■3 miles from the sea, showing the effects of heat and frost,
