168 _ THE ARCHEOLOGICAL EXCAVATIONS IN ANAU. 
maces, or heads of clubs (fig. 387 and plate 44, fig. 11). It is from terrace B, 
between -++28.25 feet and +31 feet. The drilling, which is unfinished on each 
side, has left no trace of drill cores. Among the maces I also class hat-shaped 
stone implements like $.K. 67 (fig. 388), and S.K. 91 (fig. 389), both found with 
the gray pottery in the upper digging between +37 and +40 feet. They also 
are unfinished, the drilling only having been begun. ‘The smaller of the two maces 
shows also on the upper side the beginning of a perforation, which is really the 
reason for referring these forms to the maces instead of to the knobs. But both 
approach in form the only half-preserved mace of black-gray stone (S.K. 132; 
fig. 390 and plate 44, fig. 13), which is distinguished from the others by a projecting 
shaft-collar at the bottom. For comparison, a similar, somewhat smaller, but 
perfectly preserved implement is worthy of remark (S.K. 156). It is made of pink 
clay with a whitish-yellow slip, and was found in terrace B between +21 feet 5 
inches and +23 feet 7 inches. The significance of an implement made of marble 
(S.K. 137; fig. 391) remains uncertain. It is from the upper digging between +29 
and +32 feet, and is drilled only to the center. If it was finished, then it is to be 
classed with the knobs. 
Slingstones.—So-called slingstones are very 
numerous in the middle strata, as they were in 
the North Kurgan. Those of the South Kurgan 
are more varied in form and for the most 
part excellently polished, even if not 
always regularly formed. There occur 
forms with elliptical longitudinal section, 
as in S.K. 111 (fig. 392 and plate 44, fig. 
gee teow 15), from the upper digging at + 33 feet, 
and S.K. 195 (fig. 393 and plate 44, fig. 
14), from terrace C between +21 and 
+23 feet; or double-conical as in $.K. 
115 (fig. 394 and plate 45, fig. 1) from upper digging between +32 and +33 
feet; or egg-shaped like S.K. 242 (fig. 395 and plate 45, fig. 2), from terrace C 
between +19 and +21 feet; or conical as in S.K. 85 (fig. 396 and plate 44, fig. 16) 
from the upper digging between +37 and +40 feet. 
Implements of bone.—Here, as in the North Kurgan, objects made of bone 
were very rarely found, and even when found their significance remained somewhat 
uncertain. ‘Two implements, of which S.K. 208 (fig. 397 and plate 45, fig. 3) shows 
the form, look like arrow-points. ‘They were found in terrrace B, between +21 
feet 5 inches and +23 feet 7 inches. The implement 5. K. 182 (fig. 398 and plate 
45, fig. 4) may have been used for polishing. It is from the upper digging, between 
+25 and +29 feet. 
Unclassified.—A hoe-shaped implement (S.K. 352) deserves especial mention, 
It is made from micaceous schist with a shaft dowel, which is broken off (fig. 399 
and plate 45, fig. 13). It was found in terrace B, below the clay chest, and is made 
from a polished piece, the original form of which is rather roughly hewn and is
