Nos. 10, 11, and 12.—Pieces of amber of irregular shape, about^in. thick, pierced for beads. The largest has been ground flat onboth surfaces, and the others look more like naturally flat pieces ofamber. Four of these were found. No. 13.—Amber beads of irregular bean shape. Of these abouttwenty-six were found, varying from the size of a horse bean tothat of a very small pea. There were also fragments of one largerpiece of rough unshaped amber pierced as a bead. All the amberis very red, and resembles resin. No. 14.—A bead of rock crystal, roughly globular in shape,apparently made from a water-worn pebble. The sides rough, theends ground down and polished.
