**Deulpota²**, Dt 24-Parganas. Middle Stone Age (Middle Palaeolithic [4.3]) tools comprising unifacially worked subtriangular points, borers, side scrapers and hollow scrapers. An interesting feature of the tools is their diminutive form which may be due either to the size of the available chert nodules on which they are worked or to a special character of the lower Ganga Middle Stone Age industries. Sherds of the Rouletted Ware [11.21] were also recovered.
