A numerous and widely distributed class of prehistoric objects of problematical significance and use. The typical forms are flat, oblong tablets of stone, and more rarely of copper, shell, and bone. They are often rectangular in outline, but the margin is modified in many ways, and sometimes shows ornamental notchings, and, occa- sionally, rude ornamental or symbolic de- signs are engraved on the flat surfaces. The ends of the tab- lets are in cases pointed or rounded, and again they ex- pand like ax blades or the spread wings of a bird. Rarely the outline of the tablet assumes the shape of a bird; these forms approach the banner stones (q. v.). Others are convex on one face and flat or concave on the other, suggesting re- lationship with the boat-stones ().
