ABORIGINAL OCCUPATION OF NEW YORK 123 
75 Indian hill is on lot 9 north of the road and was described 
by Clark as the farm of Isaac P. Jobs. The French who came 
‘there in 1654 and in following years speak of the palisade and gates. 
‘In 1677 Greenhalgh said it had no defence. Clark said that early 
‘settlers remembered distinctly an earthwork there with walls four 
‘or five feet high, which had one gateway and was circular with a 
diameter of from 300 to 350 feet. The writer traced the general 
site under favorable circumstances and made the village an ellipse 
about 1050 feet long by 450 feet wide. It is two miles south of 
Manlius village occupying the full width of the hill. The large 
cemetery is farther north and on the edge of the east ravine. 
Recent relics. There are many memorials of the French missions 
and a boulder remains on which the Onondagas sharpened their 
implements. 
76 Clinton said that there was a cemetery of three or four acres ~ 
‘a mile eastward. This was on the Scoville farm, lot Hole 
77 Indian fort is in Pompey, on lot 23, not lot 33 as usually 
stated. A bank and ditch crossed it, running in a southeast line 
according to Clark, but really southwest. This was 300 feet long 
and there were lodges on both sides. It has always been called 
a recent site but the writer found no evidence of this fact and defers 
to others. The large grooved boulder has been removed. 
78 There was a cemetery near Hill’s, lot 33. South of this, but 
in Madison county, was the stockade already described, but which 
was an Onondaga town. i 
79 A stockade was on the Indian knolls, on the Lawrence farm, 
lot 68, a mile south of Pompey Center, east of the creek. In- 
dian and European articles are found but no French. It was re- 
ported at an early day as an oblong stockade of two acres. It is 
somewhat triangular as represented in fig. 77 and is about 675 
feet long with a width of 360 at the broad end to the south. No 
council wampum appears and but few shell beads. It may be dated 
about 1640. 
80 East of this and of the road is Indian spring on a small stream. 
On either side of this stream were the two grooved boulders now
