* Site No. 34. A large village site is found on the property of 



Burgess Hart, on Lot No. 272, on the north side of the Pot- 

 ter Road, on the highest terrace of Cazenovia Creek. 



The site has been under cultivation for sixty years and 

 the numerous refuse heaps have been scattered. Many articles 

 are still to be found there. Points of both notched and triangular 

 types are abundant. Stone axes are abundant. Potsherds and 

 bone articles-are found. Two birdstones were found on this site. 



A small burying place was found many years ago and 

 the bodies and articles found have been scattered. Brass kettles 

 and iron axes were found in these graves. An iron axe and the 

 lock of a flint-lock musket were found recently on the surface. 



The site was one of those of the Wenro village at Buffalo. 



* Site No. 35. A large village site occupies a low bluff on the 



north bank of Cazenovia Creek on Lots 129 and 199, owned 

 by A. S. Schwab and William Eaton. 



On it are many refuse heaps, but no cemetery has been 

 discovered. Some of the refuse heaps have been excavated by 

 D. M. Silver, and by the writer. 



Large numbers of articles are still found there. Both 

 triangular and notched points abound, many stone axes and 

 chisels, scrapers and blades, bone awls and clay pipes have been 

 found. A bone fish-hook was found in one of the refuse heaps, 

 and in another was found a bone ' 'dagger' ' . Many of the remains 

 from this site are preserved at the Museum of the Buffalo Society 

 of Natural Sciences. 



This is one of the group of sites of the Buffalo Wenro 

 village. 



* Site No. 36. Between 1780 and 1840 a few Onondaga cabins

 ford of Cazenovia Creek on its east bank. A council house 

 stood near the ford on the bend of Seneca Street (Aurora 

 Road), (l). Some graves, presumably of these Onondagas;
