THE STONE AGE IN NEW JERSEY. . 215 
voted to “relics” of other countries. Prof. Nilsson, to whom we 
have so often referred, figures on plate xiii, figs. 225-226, two 
“arrowheads”, which he refers to (page 88) as spears which 
` have been worn down and broken from use, and repaired; and 
considers the specimens to have been once like others referred 
to, about six inches in length. Fig. 66, found here in New 
Jersey, is almost identical except in size, which is but one half 
that of the Scandinavian specimen. It 
Seems not a little curious that not only 
do we find here pretty much all that 
characterizes the Scandinavian stone 
age, but even fragments that have been 
utilized are here found, showing that 
they, too, have undergone a similar re- 
Storative treatment. 
Figure 67 represents a handsomely 
chipped, rough-edged, bluntly pointed 
arrowhead ; at least we will here fol-

masmuch as he has figured the same 
form, except, that they appear more 
roughly worked. He gives two figures £ 
that show the similarity better than a 
Mere description can, on pl. ii, fig. 36, 
and pl. xvi, fig. 266. In size the speci- 
mens agree,
