MUSEUM NOTES. Jg5 
pora) belonging to the Upper Chalk formation, from a tumulus near 
Brandon, Suffolk, is almost unique. Some of the stone celts are from 
A. Tylor's collection, and belong to the original discovery of Lake 
Dwellings, in the Swiss Lakes. The series of scrapers, hammer- 
stones, &c, were selected chiefly to illustrate the modes of working 
flint. (See the exhibitor's official li History of Gkmflints, &c") 
IV.— PALAEOLITHIC. 
The Palaeolithic implements, all of flint, are particularly fine and 
interesting in several ways. They include specimens of the original 
find at Abbeville, France, and are consequently some of the first 
recognised older stone-age implements. The rest are of the ex- 
hibitor's own finding in Norfolk, Suffolk, &c, and one is the finest 
example from the beds named by him, " Brandon Beds," which are 
undoubtedly older than the close of the glacial period. 
V.— EOLITHIC. 
Two crude flint implements from Suffolk, which would now be 
classed as Eolithic. The exhibitor believes them to be merely the 
cruder forms, perhaps only slightly trimmed for temporary use, and 
•does not see any reason to consider them older than the ordinary 
Palaeolithic forms. 
The collection also contains the only two stone implements yet 
known from Borneo, but the exhibitor (who found them) could get 
no geological proof of their age. He believes they may be older 
than the introduction of iron into Borneo, say before a.d. 1000.
