Fig. 161.—Four Pins and a Needle of Bone, and one Pin of Bronze. All (1⁄1).
Two spindle-whorls, one of which was of cannel coal. Three crucibles, one having particles of gold in its crevices and another the remains of a yellowish slag ([Fig. 160]). One flint knife ([Fig. 160]), two scrapers, two cores, and a few chips.
Bone.—Twenty pins, of which only one was ornamented with a check pattern ([Fig. 161]). One darning-needle ([Fig. 161]). Three round knobs and one curiously worked object. One of the knobs is ornamented with circular lines. Three nearly perfect toilet combs and fragments of others ([Fig. 162]).
Horn.—A polished dagger 7½ inches long, another roughly cut, and a few handles.
Wood.—Fragments of a wooden bowl, ornamented with three incised lines parallel to the rim, which must have been made on a wood-turners lathe; one small fragment had a clasp of thin brass over it as if it had been mended. Portions of an oar, a canoe, a board pierced with holes, and some large pins like those found at Lochlee.
