OBJECTS OF STONE FROM CULTURE III, SOUTH KURGAN.   167

fig. 376 and plate 44, fig. 2; S.K. 209, fig. 377 and plate 44, fig. 3; S.K. 266, fig. 378 and plate 44, fig. 4) there are forms which are clearly to be traced backward to naturalistic prototypes, as on the side of S.K. 148 (fig. 379; plate 44, fig. 7) . Here there are alternate snake-like forms and a figure which one is inclined to look upon as human. The cross pattern, on the other hand, on S.K. 272 (fig. 38o) appears to be a stiff, decorative human figure. Both motifs find the strongest

in the ornamentation on the whorls of Troy. Implements of

flint and obsidian.—In the South Kurgan also, flint implements

390   were often found in

the middle strata.

Simple flint knives were numerous, as in

389   S.K. 162 (fig. 381 and plate 44, fig. io),

from terrace B, between + 2I feet 5 inches and + 23 feet 7 inches ; scrapers are more rare. S.K. 8o (fig. 382 and plate 44, fig. 6) was found in the dump of the upper digging. One-edged saws were also found, like S.K. 79, fig. 383 and plate 44, fig. 12, from the same layer. The most excellent work-

ments is shown in the fine arrow-point (S.K. 120) which also attracts our attention by its form showing small barbs and tongue. It is shown in fig. 384, and plate 44, fig. 9, and was found in terrace B between +23 feet 7 inches and +25 feet. Of another form but of equally perfect workmanship is the arrow-point (S.K. 365; fig. 385 and plate 44, fig. 8) taken from the fresh dump of shaft C

of the upper digging on April 3o, and derived

from near the middle   \ 396
height of culture III ; probably from between o and —14 feet. A smaller, more compact and broader arrow-point

of obsidian (S.K. 351)   392   393   394   395

was found under skeleton r in terrace B at + 25 feet. It is shown in fig. 386, and plate 44, fig. 5. It was the only obsidian implement that it was our good fortune to find and in workmanship is equal to the last-mentioned flint implements.

Perforated stone implements.—An unfinished implement in the form of a flattened ball of gray stone (S.K. 7o) is probably to be classed with the annular
