XXXII. ON A FIND OF STONE IMPLEMENTS AT 
TANJONG MALIM. 
By Ivor H. N. Evans, M.A. 
The find of stone implements described in this paper is 
chiefly interesting in that the specimens discovered appear 
to have been either part of a hoard, or to have formed a 
portion of the stock-in-trade of an ancient factory. 
The credit for the first discovery belongs to Captain 
F. W. Howl of the Federated Malay States Railways who 
picked up a single specimen on a piece of “‘ made’’ ground 
which lies between the Kuala Iumpur and Court Roads at 
Tanjong Malim. The soil of this is said to have come from 
the site of the new Malay Teachers’ College. 
Information with regard to this find was sent to me by 
the Hon’ble Mr. W. G. Maxwell, C.M.G., and, as business 
took me to Kuala Lumpur within a few ‘days ‘of receipt of 
the news, I, accompanied by Mr. W. M. Gordon, Temporary 
Assistant, F.M. S. Museums, paid a visit to Rahiong Malim 
on the way. 
On meeting Captain Howl, he showed us a portion of 
another implement which he had picked up since his first 
discovery—the original specimen was not in his possession at 
the time. We then walked to the spot where the finds had 
been made, but a somewhat extensive search proved fruit- 
less, except for the discovery of a fragment of rough pottery, 
seemingly ancient, which may, or may not, be contempo- | 
raneous with the stone implements. On extending our range, 
however, to near the corner where the Court Road meets 
followed almost immediately by that of two others (Nos. 2 
and 3) by Messrs. Howl and oe inge On a further search, 
conducted a little later in the day, I picked up two more 
implements (Nos. 4 and 5) which were ne only about three 
inches apart 
On October 20th, 1921, about a month after my first 
search, I again visited Tanjong Malim with a view to further 
exploration of the site. On this occasion I succeeded in 
finding a portion of an implement (No, 6) and a small water-

No other boulders were encountered on the ‘‘ made ’”’ ground 
and it seems probable, from the close association of this
