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.
(l) 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 1, 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 1, 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. 10). It was found in outer digging 1, between
17 feet and 20 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.
