of six radiating and pointed ellipses, is very nearly like that on the runtee found in New York State and made public by the Rev. Mr. Beauchamp. The smaller one has a circular border enclosing two bars which cross each other at right angles in the centre, dividing the face of the bead into four quarters. This, in Ridged Gouge found at Plainville general, is the characteristic design for engraving such beads the lines in this case being formed by rows of dots, and as a whole very closely resembling runtees in the National Museum, from New Mexico. Only a few of these have ever been discovered in the United States. They were, however, described by the early writers. Beverly gives an illustration of an Indian boy, who is described as wearing a necklace of these runtees, which he says are made of Conch Shell, as the Peak is only the shape is flat and like a cheese drilled Edge- ways. Nothing of a similar form, so far as I can learn, occurs in European coun- tries. The Indians, according to School- craft, have no traditions respecting this class of objects. The fact that some of the ornamentations are such as would be produced with a compass indicates that they may have been made by white men and given to the Indians in barter. The only known specimens, aside from those found at Farmington, are from New Mex- ico, Ohio, and New York State. Of stone implements the most common is the arrowhead. They are abundant in many places and sparsely lodged on nearly every farm in the State. The surveyors pole knocks them off the rocks even in the ragged mountain ridges of Panther Swamp. They are sometimes found by the quart or peck. Some years ago about half a peck were found buried in the ground near Compounce Pond; and in 1830 a like quantity was found at Norwich. A man in Norwich has in all collected several bushels of them. These points are often classed, in accordance with their supposed uses, as hunting points, fishing points, war points, etc., but the real use of most of our stone relics is largely a matter of conjecture. Many of the so-called arrow-points are not such in fact, and may have been used for purposes now unthought of. Proba- bly some of them were hafted and used as knives and scrapers. At the National Museum arrow-points and nearly all stone implements are classified by the form rather than by the supposed uses. Arrow- heads are divided into seven types, all of which have been found in Connecticut, and nearly all in Farmington. One vari- ety has its opposite edges bevelled, after the manner of a reamer. A strange thing about them is that they are so Gouge found at Union. bevelled that they must be revolved in a left-handed direction when used as reamers. I have never yet been able to learn an exception to this rule. Arrow- points, after being chipped, sometimes had their surface ground. I recall these as found only at Farmington and Plain- field. Arrowheads and reamers or perfora- tors merge into each other so closely that it is impossible to distinguish some speci- mens. Farmington has furnished many examples of perforators. Some are long .1/if THE STONE AGE OF CONNECTICUT. 333 pounds. None of them showed any signs of use. This for Connecticut is considered a remarkable find. Even the splinters and flakes produced in making chipped implements are inter- esting and instructive. Many of them were utilized by the Indians for knives, scrapers, etc. The Indians were, to a certain extent, mineralogists. They knew that stones with no cleavage and with a conchoidal fracture were best suited for their purpose, and they well knew where to find such material. Many wonder where they found it, not knowing where there is any like it; but a little knowl- edge of mineralogy and close observation will show that the material for nearly all their implements was found close at hand. For instance, the black flint and yellow jasper arrow-points of Farmington were made from pebbles found in the bed of the Farmington River. It has been a great mystery how arrow- heads and like implements were made; but it is now generally conceded that they were made by pressure, or at least made by the use of a set instead of by direct blows. John Evans, in his Stone Imple- ments of Great Britain, gives much attention to this subject and also to the flakes and cores produced. Good ex- amples of arrow-points made recently by white men are on exhibition at the Na- tional Museum. As a general rule such implements were made from flakes or celt found at New Britain. and slender for their whole length, others have an expanded base for an apparent handle, some are pointed at both ends, while others have a flat blade-like form at the base, as if one end was used for a scraper and the other for a reamer. Scrapers abound in an end- less variety of forms. Spearheads differ from ar- rowheads only in size, and closely allied to them are the large leaf-shaped implements of uncertain use. These, as well as large spearhead- shaped pieces, were some- times employed as digging tools, and some were used for cutting and sawing. Farm- ington and Plainville have furnished many large leaf- shaped implements of flint. Three large chipped implements of slate were found at Plainville resting against each other, with their edges lying verti- cally. The largest was nearly nine inches long, and weighed a little over two splinters struck from larger blocks, which, when all available flakes were removed, be- came mere refuse. The law of what Evans calls the bulb of percussion, shown at the starting point of a fracture, will Banner Axe found at columbia.

1890 's GREEK PORTRAITS COLLECTION Tomb Sarcophagus 1894 Original magazine article.Removed from an antique magazine. Quite Scarce.
12 pages with 17 illustrations .
Please take a look at the article's sample page(s).


GRAF COLLECTION OF GREEK PORTRAITS. 613 have been cleaned, retouched with paint, and in other ways restored. The ten portraits which Ebers examined at Vevez in 188788 had their colors renewed by the hand of some artist of modern times. Judging from the condition of the mummy portraits found by Flinders Petrie, and considering the checkered career which some of those in the Graf collection have had since they were first seen by Bedouins, we may suppose that in some cases the amount of the restoration, to make them the beautiful portraits which we now see, was not small. The individual portraits thus treated are not designated by Wilcken, and an examination of the panels themselves shows that the modern work upon them has been very cleverly done. The following passage is from U. Wilck- en s article on the Greek portraits from Fayum in the fourth volume of the Annual of the Royal Archaeological In- stitute Andererseits ist aber zu be- merken, dass die Grafschen Bilder sich heute nicht so priisentiren, wie sie gefun- den wurden, sondern durch sorgfiiltige Beseitigung von Staub und Schmutz, durch Aneinanderfilgung der Fragmente, end- lich auch durch teilweise Ausftillung der durch Abspringen der Farben entstan- denen Liicken mit matten, in Thnlichen T6nen gehaltenen Wasserfarben eine durch greifende Restauration erfahren haben. If these statements are true, and I do not know that they have been authoritatively denied, the collection loses some of its value from an artistic standpoint; but it still remains most valuable in its revelations of the charac- ter of Greek art in the provincial city in which the portraits were painted. These pictures, although Greek in character, came from Egypt, the parent of Hellenic culture. The large oasis of the valley of the Nile, in which the pres- ent Fayum lies, has yielded many inter- esting antiquities. It lies between 290 and 300 north latitude, and has for a capital Medinet el-Fayum, which is sit- uated not far from the ruins of old Cro- codilopolis. Under the Ptolemies this city was called Arsinoe. From this place has come in late years a well-known papy- rus, which has shed much ,light on the customs of life in Egypt at the time it No. 94,was written. Under the Ptolemies, Arsi- noe was a Greek colony, and later, at the epoch of the Roman Emperors, was a flourishing city. The agent of Mr. Graf No. 2. found these portraits, it is said, at Rubaj- jat near Roda, which is twenty-two kil- ometres from Arsinoe. For what little is known of the graves of Rubajjat where these portraits were found, and for details in regard to their condition when discovered, we must re- fer to Eberss quotations from the writings of a German Egyptian engineer, Stadler, who gives an accurate account of the position of the ancient graves in which he says the portraits were originally dis- covered. The Bedouins by chance, in seeking for salt, came upon a grave, and several gilt sarcophagi containing mum- mies with the portraits of the dead at- tached to them. Seeing nothing of value in them, they left the portraits, which later came into the possession of a Greek trader; but the fate of the coffins, the mummies, and their wrappings remains, and perhaps always will remain, a mys- tery. Possibly, suggests Stadler, they were burned; but, at all events, the por- traits were at that time separated from the mummies to which they belonged, and the latter disappeared.1 Fortunately, however, the work of Flin- ders Petrie gives us more definite infor- mation of the discovery, in r888, of mummy portraits at Hawara, near by. I cannot do better than quote his account. So soon as I went there, writes this explorer, I observed a cemetery on the north of the pyramid; on digging in it I soon saw that it was all Roman, the 1 Ten years Digging in Egypt. No. 4.
