PROF. HICKSON, in his interesting article on Black Coral (NATURE, August 12, p. 217), alludes to the remains of Noah's Ark as quoted by Josephus from Berosus and others. It is said in Josephus (loc. cit.) that `` the remains of the timber were a great while preserved. '' There is in the Monastery at Etch-miadzin a small piece of Noah's Ark carefully framed. It was given by an angel to a monk named James, who had wandered on Ararat in search of it for seven years (see J. B. Telfer, ``The Crimea, etc.,'' 1876, p. 250). So far as I could see, when I examined it in 1898, it was neither wood nor fossil wood, but asbestos. This does not render improbable the occurrence of bitumen in the neighbourhood, but why does Prof. Hickson assume that the amulets were bracelets? In default of evidence that Noah utilised the Ark for dredging, there does not seem any reason to connect him with black coral.
