THE SPECIAI, FINDS FROM GHIAUR KALA.

20I

as diverse as at Anau. For the most part they are plum shape; spherical forms were more rarely noticed. As examples, we may indicate G.K. 44a (plate 56, fig. 4), which is of stone and was found in the lower digging, between 12 and 15.25 feet; also G.K. 183 (plate 56, fig. 5), of clay and found on the declivity of the acropolis in gallery Iv; and lastly, the spherical example G.K. 28 (plate 56, fig. 6) at 12 feet, in the lower digging.

(i) MISCELLANEOUS.

Of other small finds there are a few pieces which are worthy of remark.

A bone pin, four-edged, at the head, ornamented with notches (G.K. 159

plate 56, fig. 7), from outer digging I, between 11.5 feet and 14 feet 4 inches.

A pendant with two holes, cut from a shell (G.K. 42; plate 56, fig. 8), found

in the upper digging, between 8.75 and 11.5 feet.

An ornament (?) of cup form, with longitudinal ribs on the margin, made from a coal-like material, probably jet (G.K. 72; plate 56, fig. 9), from outer digging I, between 4 and 9 feet.

Lastly, the fragment of a clay object, cup-shaped, with a plastically modeled margin (G.K. 195a; plate 56, fig. io). It was found in outer digging 1, between 17 feet and zo feet 5 inches.

It is to be hoped that the work done and the finds made at Ghiaur Kala will furnish the groundwork for further investigations. The ancient soil of Merv, in which so many historical and archeological problems lie buried, offers a tempting field to the archeologist.
