A beautifully formed blade, chipped square at the base, and with a series of notches along the sides towards the butt, was found at Arbor Low, Derbyshire.[1578] The late Mr. J. F. Lucas obligingly lent it to me for engraving, as Fig. 267. It is now preserved in the British Museum. [Illustration: Fig. 267.—Arbor Low. 1∕2] In the Wiltshire Barrows, explored by Sir R. Colt Hoare, were several of these daggers. One,[1579] 6 1∕2 inches long, was found with a skeleton beneath a large “sarsen stone” near Durrington Walls, in company with a small whetstone, a cone and ring of jet like a pulley, and two small discoidal scrapers. Another,[1580] of much the same form and size as Fig. 264, occurred in company with a drinking-cup, and what was probably a whetstone of “ligniformed asbestos,” at the feet of a skeleton in a barrow near Stonehenge. Others have been found in the barrows of Derbyshire and Yorkshire. In Green Low, on Alsop Moor,[1581] a dagger-blade of flint, 6 inches long, stemmed and barbed arrow-heads, a bone pin, and other bone instruments, were associated with a contracted interment. It was in this barrow also that the pyrites and scrapers, previously mentioned at p. 313, were found. Another leaf-shaped dagger of white flint, 4 1∕2 inches long, with the narrow half curiously serrated—as boldly as Fig. 266, but with many more notches—was found by Mr. Bateman beneath the head of a contracted skeleton in Nether Low,[1582] near Chelmorton. Another, 4 1∕4 inches long, was found with burnt bones in one of the Three Lows,[1583] near Wetton. A flint dagger,[1584] elegantly chipped, 5 1∕4 inches long, was found on Blake Low, near Matlock, in 1786. Fragments of similar daggers have been found with interments in barrows near Pickering;[1585] and in Messrs. Mortimer’s rich collection is a fine specimen from a barrow on the Yorkshire Wolds. One like Fig. 264, but of coarser workmanship, 5 3∕4 inches long and 2 3∕8 inches wide, was found in 1862, with a skeleton and an earthen vessel, at Norton, near Daventry, and particulars sent to me by the |353| late Mr. S. Sharp, F.S.A., F.G.S.; and what would appear to have been an instrument of the same character, 8 inches long, was found near Maidstone.[1586] A very good specimen, of fine workmanship, is in the Museum at Canterbury, but its place of finding is unknown. Another, more like Fig. 267, but not serrated, 6 3∕4 inches long and 2 inches broad, was found with an urn at Ty ddu Llanelieu,[1587] Brecon, and has been engraved.
