208 The Rev. Mr. Buckland’s account of Fossil Teeth and 
part a fragment of bone or tooth of any of the extinct animals, 
it will follow that this part was antediluvial. A farther argu- 
ment may be drawn from the limited quantity of post-diluvian 
stalactite, as well as from the undecayed condition of the 
bones, to show that the time elapsed since the introduction of 
the diluvian mud, has not been one of excessive length. 
The arguments arising from the detail of facts we have been 
describing, are applicable to the illustration of analogous phe- 
nomena, where the evidence of their history is less complete. 
In our own country there are five other instances of bones 
similarly deposited in caverns, the origin of some of which, 
though not before satisfactorily made out, becomes evident as 
a corollary from the proofs afforded by the cave at Kirkdale : 
these are in Glamorganshire, Somersetshire, Derbyshire, and 
Devonshire. 
1. The first is in the parish of Nicholaston, on the coast of 
Glamorganshire, at a spot called Crawley Rocks, in Oxwich 
Bay, about twelve miles S.W. of Swansea ; it was discovered 
in the year 1792, in a quarry of lime-stone, on the property of 
T. M. Talbot, Esq. of Penrice Castle, and no account of it 
has, I believe, been ever published ; some of the bones how- 
ever are preserved in the collection of Miss Talbot, at Pen- 
rice ; they are as follows : 
Elephant—-— —Three portions of large molar teeth. 
Rhinoceros — Right and left ossa humeri. 
One atlas bone. 
Two molar teeth of upper jaw. 
Ox-======— ■ ——First phalangal bone of left fore foot. 
Stag—-^^ extremity of the horn.
