Handle.—Cut portion of a tine 3 inches long, and hollowed as if for the handle of a knife.
Pointed Tines.—A few of these show signs of having been used. An implement made of the horn of roe-deer is here figured (Fig. 174).
IV. Objects of Wood.
A striking contrast between this collection and that from Lochlee crannog is the paucity of wooden implements. Indeed, here the only article worth noticing is a slender stave, like that of a milk-cog. It is 81⁄2 inches long, and the end with the transverse groove is a shade thicker.
V. Objects of Metal.
(a.) Articles made of Iron.—Articles made of this metal are extremely few. Besides two portions so corroded that it is impossible to say what they might have been, there remains only one object to be described, viz., a small hand-dagger, much worn and oxidised. It is 6 inches long, and shows evidence of riveting at the end.
