In the West Chamber eight bones were found in the cave-earth at the same distance 
from the entrance as Flint No. 11; while in the Reindeer Gallery, over and within 1 foot 
on either side, twenty-one bones of various animals were found in the cave-earth over- 
lying Flint No. 30. Both these flints were in the shingle bed. 
The following specimens were, on the contrary, found in the cave-earth, and were 
associated with, or were beneath, bones of the different animals here mentioned*: —

At the same distance from the entrance and the same depth in the cave-earth in the 
West Chamber as Flint No. 9 there were found fifteen bones of Bear, Hyaena, Ox, and 
Rhinoceros; while in the Flint-knife Gallery flint No. 5 was found overlying three bones 
of Ox and Bear. 
Besides these cases — which determine, first, the occurrence of worked flints in the 
bottom or shingle bed, and the superposition on it at the same spot of a considerable thick- 
ness of undisturbed cave-earth rich in mammalian remains, and, secondly, the association 
* The Register does not record the distance from the walls of the cave, so the superposition may not always 
be quite vertical; but from the small width of the galleries there is little room for error.
