Michigan's UP

ISLE ROYAL

The tools, though injured from oxidation, appear to have been of fair workmanship, and were evidently hardened, apparently through the agency of fire. With the exception of the stone hammers, no other tools formed of stone have been observed. A large portion of a wooden utensil shaped l^ke a bowl was taken from the debris, charcoal, •etc at the bottom of a pit. This vessel had possibly been used in bailing water from the excavation. It must originally have been about three feet in diameter, and from its appearance something of the rude character of the tool employed in shaping it could be gathered. The fragment was not of uniform thickness throughout; the wood having been more easily removed when working in certain directions, e. g., when cutting with the grain, the vessel was thinner in those portions.
