Antiquity of Nan.

"Mr. Sydney B. T. Skertchly, of
her majrsty's geoglogical survey,
who is stationed at Brandon, Suffolk,
has recently discovered some flint
instruments IN that reighbUrhuud,
in beds formed before the cluse of
glacial period. One was picked out
of the beds iii pit at Culford, Suf-
folk, and two others were dug out OF
like beds in pit at Botany Bay, on
the Norfolk side of Brandon. 1t
was not till MIR. Skertchly himself
found another implement At CulfoFd
and saw the boulder clay above the
bed from whIrl. lie extracted it, that
the !mpuriance of the discovery
dawned upon him. Alongside The
Cullord implement lie found \ de-
posit Of broken and sclaped mann
malian bones aud some fresh water
shells. These bones were all in
circumscribed area. A jawhone CON
tanning teeth had been forwarded to
London to he examined. Under
meath the bones the clay was found
to he burned Mr.. >kertchly's ex-
PLANTATION is that We have here pre-
served the one solitary instance in
the whole world of a camping
ground of the paleolithic men, ana
this camping ground occurred below
the boulder-clay which belonged to
the earliest part of the glacial period.
These remains were thus far older
than anything previously discovered
Tracing the boulder r-clay and the
beds beneath across the country, ne
saw that the implements found at
Botany Bay were of the same age.
The men who lived before the bould-
er-clay appeared to hlnl to be more
intimately connected in time with
the men of the paleolithic graveIs
lying upon the boulder-clay, than
were the latter with the men of the
neolithic age, who scooped out these
ancient flint mines near Brandon
called Grimes Graves.'n
