Figs. 96 and 97. Two needle-cases of bone, particularly 

 remarkable for their ornamentation, a border of incised lines 

 running along the curved edges on both sides. In the larger 

 specimen the small cross-lines are placed in the interval be- 

 tween two parallel lines and disposed in two rows vis-à-vis 

 each other, each standing on its own line so that the intervals 

 between them produce a raised zigzag line; in the smaller 

 specimen they are arranged unilaterally on a single line. Cf. 

 inv. Amd. 61 and 87. 



Size: length 6*5 cm (fig. 96), 104 cm (fig. 97).
