and cylindrical tubes (N.K. 81 and 185; plate 36, fig. 1). Of these there are two spiral and two straight tubes, well preserved (fig. 237). The first have four and four and a half windings, respectively; the latter are made of thin sheet-metal in such manner that the edges overlap. Besides these, there are respectively five and three fragments which can not be joined. The same burial yielded also lead tubes and a flint knife (*cf.* below).

*Copper pins.*—Pins were found with heads of various forms—pyramidal, as in fig. 238, from terrace VII, between +24 feet and +22 feet 8 inches (N.K. 167; plate 36, fig. 2), or hat-shaped with round cross-section, as in fig. 239, from terrace VIII, between +22 feet 8 inches and +24 feet (N.K. 187; plate 36, fig. 4). Of doubtful connection with the older culture is a pin with a cap-shaped head (fig. 240), from the west pit of Komorof's trench (N.K. 20; plate 36, fig. 3).

The fragment N.K. 145 (fig. 242) belongs to a four-edged chisel from terrace VII, between +24 feet 2 inches and +26 feet.

Indeterminable is the piece of a four-edged bar with rhombic cross-sections (N.K. 188; fig. 243), from terrace II, between +20 feet and +20 feet 5 inches; and
