PRE-HISTORIC MAN. 
Treasures Exhibition, then opened in Leeds. lie stimulated the boys 
by a trifling reward, and the specimens found were brought to him, 
and have since been placed in the Museum of the Leeds Philosophical 
Society. From the limited space in which they all occurred, it 
would appear to have been the site of a manufactory. The material 
was brought from a distance, probably the chalk districts about 
Flamborough. It was probable that other specimens may have been 
turned up during the enclosure of the moorland at different periods, 
for in 1815 Thoresby figured in hh Miiscvum TJioreshyanum two flint 
arrow-heads, which were found near Adel Mill. Mr. Denny considered 
at some length the historical circumstances under which these imple- 
ments may have been accumulated. He incidentally mentioned that 
in 1867 a massive gold armilla, whose value as old gold was £18, 
was found within a few miles of Leeds, and in 1868 an example of 
gold ring money, or rude ear-ring, weighing 336 grains, was found in 
a ploughed field at Cawood, which also passed into the hands of a 
goldsmith at Leeds. 
Mr. Thomas W. Tew, of Carleton, near Pontefract, described 
some bones of Bos longifrons, which were found in April, 1869, whilst 
some men were excavating sand at Monk Hill, at about a depth of 
12 feet from the surface. They got out some of the teeth, horncores, 
and other bones, when the soil above them fell and the teeth were 
again buried. The bones were submitted to Professor Owen, who 
identified them as belonging to the animal named. The bones of 
reindeer, Bos priscus, and Bos primogenius, have also been found with 
the specimens described. 
The Rev. W. C. Lukis, F.S.A., contributed a description of the 
stone avenues of Carnac, and other pre-liistoric monuments of 
Brittany, which he had recently visited and mapped. He, however, 
did not attempt to decipher their meaning, but left that for future 
investigations. 
Mr. John Ffooks, who at a previous meeting of the Society had 
read a paper on the flint implements found at Flamborough Head, 
laid before the Society the result of his further investigations. He 
considered that before the use of flint, men would probably use wood, 
bone, or soft stone for their weapons. These, however, from various
