He subsequently passed the artefacts on to Professor R. R. Inskeep of the Department of Archaeology at University of Cape Town who recognised them as being of considerable interest. This paper describes the artefacts recovered from the prospecting pit. The assemblage consists only of some 37 pieces, but the interest lies in several artifacts classified as core-axes.
