ABORIGINAL OCCUPATION OF NEW YORK II7 



Kaneenda was on the creek and south of the lake, within the city 

 limits. , An early site may be placed with this on an elevated spot 

 in the marsh west of the creek where Dr Hinsdale has discovered 

 much of interest. There is also a small early site with rude imple- 

 ments, in the third ward of Syracuse near the creek. Besides these 

 there was a recent village as well as a cemetery not far from the 

 present high school. 



33 There were early and late camps at Brewerton on both sides 

 of the river and many stone plummets and bone harpoons are 

 found. Burial places are also found on both sides, the one on the 

 south side being in the present cemetery. Not far south some 

 hamlets were mentioned by early missionaries. 



34 There were small camps on lots 32 and 33, Cicero about South 

 Bay on Oneida lake, and another farther east on the Eastwood 

 farm lot 46. 



35 A little west' of Bridgeport was a hamlet on lot 73. 



36 Another was. on the lake shore, lot 47 and east of the present 

 cemetery, and another on the same lot near Chittenango creek. 



It may be added that there are other small camps, as on the 

 islands in Cicero swamp and on Frenchman's and Dunham's islands 

 in Oneida lake. 



37 There was a cemetery with some lodge sites on the Childs 

 farm, lot 2.2, Clay. Earthen vessels were found with the skeletons 

 near the Seneca river. 



38 Cemetery and hamlet on lot 16, Clay east of Schroeppel's 

 bridge on a bluff south of the river. Early and fine relics. Camps 

 also on the north side. 



39 Hamlet on the Walters farm, lot 23 and north side of the 

 road. Many fireplaces but rude articles. 



40 Another on lot 74 has afforded fine relics. There are other 

 scattered camps of little note. 



41 South of the canal in Elbridge was a group of notable earth- 

 works now obliterated, which seem to belong to the Cayuga group. 

 In early notes these are, referred to Camillus but the division of 

 the town placed all in the present town of Elbridge. The one on 

 Fort hill, lot 70, Elbridge was first mentioned by Rev. Thomas
