ACCOUNTS For OLD LEGEND


In the legend Of the Golden fleece
lies hidden the record Of an ancient
method Of the Tfbareni. the scns q

north coast Of Asia Minor produced
large quantities Of the precious metals,

found IN the gravel. a. often happens

sometimes forms placers of astonish-
Ing richness.
The ancient Tibareni washed the
gold-bearing gravel. FIRST by booming.
which concentrated the gold into rela,
lively small amounts Of sand. This
was then collected and washed through
sluices having the bottoms lined with
sheepskins. The gold would sink into
the wool. while the sand would BE-
washed away in the swift current.
The skins were removed from the
sluices, the coarsest gold shaken out.
and the neeces, still glittering with
the yellow metal. were hung upon
boughs to dry so that the rest Of the
gold might be beaten from them. and
saved. The early Greek mariners, wit
