2. A thin oval-shaped disc of a light black substance like shale, measuring 3 inches by 2 inches.
3. Portion of a polished stone 2 inches long, having a narrow groove surrounding one end, and through which it appears to have been broken (Fig. 62).

1. A beautifully chipped horseshoe-shaped scraper, found at north-east corner, on a level with the raised wooden platform. It is made of a whitish flint, and measures 1 inch in length by 11⁄4 in breadth (Fig. 63).
