6 Earthwork or stronghold on the Hunt farm. It is precolonial 

 but not far from 1600. No European articles have been found 

 though a barbed bone fishhook suggested to Doctor Beauchamp some 

 knowledge of Europeans. Pottery with human forms and faces as 

 ornaments, and some specialized clay pipes are among the relics. The 

 post holes across the ridge at either end from north to south are yet 

 (1915) distinct. The east line is about 330 feet long and the length 

 from east to west about 790 feet, rapidly descending the ridge. Nearly 

 midway the width is about 100 feet. There is one gate near the 

 northeast corner and two at the west end. The total area is about 

 4;^ acres. There are caches at the west end. This earthwork has 

 been called the "Atwell site." It was partially examined by Erank 

 H. Gushing. The scene from this fort was used as the subject for 

 the background of the Iroquois group in the Milwaukee Museum.

 Cazenovia lake and there was a fish weir in the outlet, on lot 26.
