_Pottery._--A large number of entire vessels and fragments show that two qualities of paste were used, a coarse and a fine kind. Among them are bowls, plates, jugs--some having the ordinary handle and others perforated knobs; clay weights, round, cylindrical, or conical. _Sundry Objects._--Portion of a spindle with the thread wound round it (carbonised), various wooden handles, dishes, and implements; fragments of cloth, matting, burnt straw, etc. One small flat dagger of copper is in the Bern Museum. The following extract from the Government Report by Mr. Jenner, Dr. v. Fellenberg's deputy (B. 119, 2nd ed., p. 203), gives a good idea of the comparative numbers of these relics:--"The results of my excavations, which occupied 27 days, and extended over an area of 20,000 square feet, at a medium depth of 3½ feet, the relic-bed being from 2 inches to 1½ foot thick, were as follows:-- 1. Stone implements 600 2. Staghorn do. 480 3. Bone do. 235 4. Pieces of cloth 50 5. Objects for ornament 45 6. Entire vessels of pottery 11 7. Stone celts and axes in their haftings 23 8. Flint implements 121 9. Unworked pieces of staghorn 430 10. Wooden implements 24 11. Ornamented potsherds 26 12. Clay weights 8 13. Celts of nephrite and jadeite 8 14. A number of net-weights in birch-bark. Contiguous to the station just described, on its north-east side, and separated from it by a dozen paces or so, there came subsequently to light another station, described by Dr. Gross as "Une nouvelle palafitte de l'époque de la pierre à Locras." (B. 336 and 347.) Its area was only about a fourth of the former, and the relic-bed, being quite near the surface, was easily worked. Two human skulls were found here, one of which appears to have been used as a drinking-cup. From the character of the relics generally, the settlement seems to have flourished during the transition period. There were perforated axe-hammer heads, with grooves and raised ridges, like Scandinavian forms, and a few metal objects. The latter consist of three articles of copper--a remarkable double celt of large size (=Fig. 186=, No. 10), a dagger, and an awl--and three articles of bronze, viz. a sword, a dagger-blade, and a hair-pin. The other objects are of the usual Stone Age type, among which may be noted as of rather uncommon occurrence an arrow-point of nephrite (B. 347, Pl. ii. 9), and a knife of the same material with one cutting edge (=Fig. 185=, No. 28).
