1 The statement that the potter's wheel is unknown to the Peninsular Malays should be qualified by adding the word “now”. There is a Malay potter's wheel from the Peninsula at Cambridge.

2 It may perhaps be helpful to state that some geologists question the possibility of the stones with grip-depressions being used as “pounders” (pp. 149–50, 153). Some smaller “cross-hatched” stones of this kind have, been shown to have been used for stamping red marks on the skin.
