1 old surface further inland. A few flakes from a polished stone axe 
vera found. The animal remains found here and at Whitepark Bay 
ere determined by Prof. A. Leith Adams, and found to comprise ox, 
:d deer, pig, sheep or goat, wolf or dog, and man. The remains at 
,her stations are of similar kinds, though not so abundant. A small 
immer-stone, with three abraded spots, is shown in PI. xii., fig. 1. 
DUNDRUM. 
I was not able to visit the sand-hills at Dundrum during the past 
immer, but I had previously obtained a large series of implements 
om them. The arrow-heads were numerous, and beautifully worked, 
id the scrapers, as at other stations, were the most numerous of all 
le kinds of implements, and showed by pieces of weathered crust 
ihering to them that they were manufactured from small nodules and 
-res, as at Portstewart. Hammer- stones and anvil-stones were abun- 
mt, and several stone axes, both rudely chipped and polished, were 
)tained. The usual shreds of pottery, bones, and shells were found, 
it not so plentiful as at other stations. The majority of the objects 
ere procured from hollows or pits among the sand-hills, but they must 
ive dropped from the old surface, as the remnants of it were seen 
black layers along the sides, and bared platforms of the old surface 
ood out from the steep faces of sand in many instances. Sand to the 
iight of 50 feet was seen resting on some of the layers here. I dug 
er several pieces of the old surface and obtained flakes and imple- 
ents. On one occasion I happened on an old hearth, and obtained 
ree dressed knives, some scrapers, cores, pottery, a well-marked 
Lvil-stone, hammer- stones, and a polished stone hatchet. On 
Lother occasion when I went to explore, at the invitation of the 
archioness of Downshire, we hit on another hearth, and Lord 
rthur Hill, who was present, and engaged heartily in the digging, 
, rned out an excellent anvil- stone of large size, cores, scrapers, and 
immer-stones, evidently the stock-in-trade of an implement maker, 
mon Grainger, who accompanied me on one of my visits to Dundrum, 
und lying on the surface a stone bead of the Portstewart type, and 
"tracked stone" (one of those oval pebbles of quartzite, with an 
dented line of about an inch in length on each face) ; but this class 
implement is not generally considered to belong to the stone age, 
d as no specimen of the kind has been obtained from the old surface, 
cannot throw any additional light on the matter.
