one side only, and arc protected on the rest by escarpments or water- 

 courses. 



Frequently the enceintes are accompanied by tumuli or mounds of 

 observation ; they are then indicated by the combination of tlie radical 

 with that of tumulus. 



Sometimes we find, especially in Hungary, defensive works which are 

 not inclosed at all. They are long lines of entrenchment, and may be 

 represented by the radical with a line parallel to its base.

7, Radical palajitte. — Th is radical sufiices for all this class of monuments, 

 lacustrian and palustriau stations, true pile-dwellings, cranoges, «&o. 



8. Radical discovery. — As we have before mentioned, the radical dis- 

 covery is a purely conventional sign, w hich is in no wise muemotechnic. 

 It is reserved to mark the localities of isolated finds. Its derivates are 

 rendered as muemotechnic as possible. 



For the localities of groups of objects, sometimes called treasures, 

 cachettes, &c., two radicals are joined into a lozenge. When this is 

 colored, it designates an atelier or foundery. Stations, habitations, «&c., 

 are indicated by two radicals forming a six-pointed star. It is the near- 

 est to round, which, in ordinary topographical charts, marks places of 

 actual habitation. 



There are two kinds of stations which the palaioethnologists of Scan- 

 dinavia aiid of Italy desire to see represented by special symbols ; they 

 are the kjokkennjoddings of the north and terramares (marl-beds) of the 

 south. These stations, generally in the form of maraelous or mounds, 

 are indicated by the radical discovery, three in a group, forming a trun- 

 cated triangle ; in the symbols of kjokkeninodding the middle triangle 

 is colored and the outer two are plain, and in the terramare the outer 

 two are colored and the inner one is plain.
