THE SPECIAL FINDS FROM GHIAUR KALA. 199 
and 26 feet, was exposed a specimen (G.K. 140) of the same type as G.K. 109 
(plate 51, fig. 7). To these there is to be added a third type: (3) fragment of a 
leaf-shaped arrow-point, strongly oxidized (G.K. 138; plate 51, fig. 5), from the 
wash on the surface near gallery 11. 
Like the three-edged arrow-points, the following finds also recall the excava- 
tions at the South Kurgan of Anau: 
A bronze stamp with a semiannular eye on the back, decorated in front 
with four curves bent inward (G.K. 4; plate 51, fig. 8), from the upper digging, 
between 10 inches and 2 feet 4 inches. A bronze object (G.K. 178; 7? plates 51; 
fig. 9), is probably the foot of an implement. It was found in the outer digging 
11. Indeterminable is a small bronze plate with two holes for attachment and 
a comb-like edge (G.K. 59; plate 51, fig. 10), also from the outer digging. 
A remarkable object (G.K. 87) is an iron seal-ring ornamented with figures 
(plate 51, fig. 11). It was found on the surface of the city plateau near outer 
digging I. In the ornamentation one can recognize a sitting and a standing figure.
