PLATE II. 



(Mason. Throwing-sticks.) 



Fig. 2. Greenland type of throwing-stick. The specific characteristics are the broad 

 form; the scanty grooves for thumb and fingers; the absence of pegs, sepa- 

 rate finger grooves, or index perforation; but the most noteworthy are the 

 two gromiuets or eyelets to fit ivory pegs on the harpoon-shaft. Tho pecul- 

 iar method of strengthening the ends with ivory pieces should also be noted.
