^{page 362 note b} I retain the term “rings” as being well established, but many of the grooves surrounding the cups take other than circular forms.

^{page 363 note a} This method may be seen in use to-day in almost any quarry.

^{page 371 note a} Mr. Allen, when writing this, must surely have forgotten his strictures on “mere guesses quite unsupported by facts.”

^{page 371 note b} Again the author's memory is at fault. On a previous page (67) he says: “They (the cup and-ring marked stones) are found neither in the bottom of the valley of the Wharfe nor on the highest parts of Rumbold's Moor, but between the 600 feet and 1,100 feet contour lines.” The highest point of Rumbold's Moor, due south of IIkley, is 1,323 feet above sea-level.

^{page 377 note a} Since the above was written, Mr. Towry Whyte, F.S.A., has called my attention to a recent publication of The British School of Archælogy in Egypt, Gizeh and Rifeh, by Professor Flinders Petrie, 1907. About 150 “soul-houses” were found during the excavations at Rifeh, dating from the VIth, Xth, XIth, and XIIth Dynasties. They consist of clay models of actual houses, with couches, chairs, water-stands, offerings of food and drink, corn-grinders, etc. Professor Petrie states that these models were placed upon the surface of the ground over the grave; he suggests that “the initial motive for such dwellings may perhaps be seen in foreign influences.” Illustrations of many of these are given.
