THE ARCHEOLOGTCAL HISTORY OF NEW YORK 58/ 



small cret'k and cinl)raccd about 4 acres. Flints, celts, drills, slate 

 objects and pestles have been found, but no pottery. 



5 Village site in Caledonia on lots 78 and 79, on the Wadsworth 

 property, on both sides of Dugan creek and north of the New York 

 Central Railroad tracks. Flints, celts, sinew stones, gouges and 

 steatite fragments have been found but no metal or bone implements 

 or triangular arrow^ points have been discovered. 



6 Large village of stone age located on Wadsworth farm known 

 as Farrell farm at Honeoye Junction on New York Central Railroad 

 west of West Rush, also on Penny farm, the tw^o sites without doubt 

 being in connection with each other. This is located on a knoll rising 

 from the river flats and bounded on the south by Dugan creek's soil 

 of gravel and sand and very stony. 



Surface produces arrow points, pestles (plentiful in the past) celts 

 and hammerstones ; no pottery or pipes, no refuse heaps or evidence 

 of lodges, no burials in immediate vicinity, the burial ground in con- 

 nection with 7 being perhaps used. (Follett.) 



7 Located to the northwest of 6 about one quarter of a mile on 

 higher ground which gradually rises to the west and northwest. 

 Here have been found a great many of the celt gouges which are 

 \evy rare on other sites. A fine large spring is on the southeast 

 corner of this site, and between this and 6. Surface findings con- 

 sist of gouges, celts and arrow points. Mr Ferrill possesses a very 

 fine specimen of a sinew stone found here. 



Considerable digging was carried on in the gravel bank in 191 3 

 for potsherds by a special collector of Rochester, several pieces being 

 found. This was probably some of the refuse heap which must have 

 existed at such a large village as is evident. The surface does not 

 yield a sign of pottery of any description. A burial ground was in 

 the gravel pit to the east of the site and has been entirely excavated 

 by the railroad company for ballast. No records of the burials are 

 obtainable. Described by Squier as containing earthworks, and is 

 probably 6, accounting for the peculiar shape of the knoll, but is 

 l)robably natural. (Follett.) 



8. A description by Kirkland of two sites containing earthworks, 

 places them 2 miles west of Allen's residence and Aliens creek, on 

 both sides. 



9 There is a burial site along the creek just west of the Pennsyl- 

 vania Railroad nearly opposite a spring. This site is in the town of 

 Caledonia. 



10 Village site on the Simmons farm one-half of a mile southwest 

 of Canawagus in the town of Caledonia and on lots 78, 79 and 80.
