Finally, small pebbles, sometimes highly polished and variegated in colour, thin circular discs of stone about the size of a halfpenny-piece, bits of dark shale as if water-worn, and a large quartz crystal having its angles worn off, may be mentioned among the nondescript articles under this heading. Also a lump of iron slag was found near the middle of the first trench, but, mysteriously, it could not be seen when collecting the objects at the end of the day's work, and was never recovered. II. OBJECTS OF BONE. [Illustration: Fig. 201. Fig. 202. Fig. 203. Fig. 204. Fig. 205. Fig. 206. Fig. 207. Fig. 208. Bone Pins (1/1).] _Pins._--Twenty bone pins, varying in length from 1-1/2 inch to 3-1/2 inches. These articles are exceedingly well made, with round polished stems, tapering into sharp points. Some have round heads like beads, others are circular but flat on the top, while others again, especially the larger ones, are irregularly shaped. One (Fig. 202) has its head ornamented by a circular ridge, surmounted by a wider rim neatly notched all round, and another has its shank surrounded by two bands of diamond-shaped spaces, formed by a series of incised lines slantingly crossing each other, as shown in Fig. 212. Fig. 210 is the representation of one only partially formed. [Illustration: Fig. 209. Fig. 210. Fig. 211. Fig. 212. Bone Pins (1/1).] [Illustration: Fig. 213. Bone Needle (1/1).] _Needle._--A neatly-formed needle, having an elongated eye at its extremity, precisely similar to a common darning needle. It tapers gently into a sharp tip, and is smoothly polished all over. Its length is 2 inches (Fig. 213). [Illustration: Fig. 214.--Bone Knob (1/1).] [Illustration: Fig. 215.--Bone Knob (1/1).] _Knobs._--Three round objects of bone, about the size of a marble, each having a portion of a slender iron pin more or less projecting. Two are quite smooth, globular, and precisely similar to each other in every respect (Fig. 214); the other is ornamented by a few incised circles and ridges (Fig. 215). Fig. 216 represents a curiously-shaped object of bone, the use of which is unknown to me. [Illustration: Fig. 216.--Object of Bone (1/1).] _Worked Bones._--Several portions of bone, exhibiting marks of sharp-cutting instruments, but not assuming the form of any recognisable implements. _Toilet Combs._--Three of these articles, which are in a wonderfully good state of preservation, are here engraved on account of their structure and variety of ornamentation.
