6th. The outworks are similar to those a Great Bend. 

 The hunting grounds which belong to this village are 

 not found nearer than Pewaukee, which is about six miles 

 away. There are works, there, however, which have been 

 described ^ by Dr. Lapham, and which have considerable 

 resemblance to the works at Crawfordsville. 



Another game drive has been discovered by the author on 

 the very edge of Pewaukee lake. Here the mounds, w^hich 

 are all oblong mounds, are arranged in a peculiar position, 

 making angles and open places along the brow of a bluff, as 

 if the purpose was to make screens for hunters and traps for 

 game. Whether these two series of works can be connected 

 with the village site at Waukesha is a question, but we refer 

 to them as among the items which make up the comparison 

 between the villages. 



V. Another locality where a village has been presuma- 

 bly identified is at Muscoda. The peculiarity here is that 

 the enclosure was hidden away from observation by sur- 

 rounding hill-tops, and was so remote from the river as to be 

 entirely out of sight of any one who might be passing along 

 the river. The enclosure is in a valley or swale, and has a 

 number of effigies surrounding it. The effigies are all of 

 them eagles. This village site has a number of game drives 

 in proximity to it; two of them are situated on the same 

 stream, only a mile or two away. The position of the 

 enclosure is peculiar. The effigies and the fragmentary 

 walls surround a swale, the land enclosed being much lower 

 than that on which the effigies are placed. There are look- 

 outs on a hill top three miles away, and there are nine wards 

 or walls of defense in two separate lines between this place 

 and the river. The spot is drained by waters of two small 

 streams which make their head near this enclosure, Indian 

 creek and Mill creek. The region is a favorable one for a 

 village site. There are several particulars in which this en- 

 closure resembles a village site.
