4. There were villages about Phoenix of historic and prehistoric 

 dates. One of the most important was on a small island, where over 

 1,500 flint implements have been collected ; scrapers, flint and quartz 

 arrows and knives, polished slate arrows, points, celts, gorgets, and bird 

 totems abound. 



7. A village site and cemetery occur at Caughdenoy, on the Oneida 

 Eiver. Arrows, gouges, and fine celts have been found. 



8. At Brewerton are several village sites on either side of the Oneida 

 Eiver, near the lake. A noted burial-place is on the north side. These 

 villages were both historic and prehistoric, and here the Trails of old 

 Fort Brewerton are still in good preservation. Arrows, pipes, celts, 

 gorgets, and bird totems are met with here, and between this site and 

 Caughdenoy two fine bayonet-shaped implements of slate were discov- 

 ered.
