Ancient Scottish lake-dwellings or crannogs : with a supplementary chapter on remains of lake-dwellings in England . ery, and suggesting, in the interests of Archaeo-logical Science, that an examination of the crannog shouldbe made. ]Ieantime these facts were communicated to meby Mr. J. H. Turner, and having had my attention already 70 ANCIENT SCOTTISH LAKE-DWELLINGS. directed to Lake Dwellings in consequence of a recentopportunity I had of inspecting some of their relics pre-served at Zurich, I also became interested in ascertaining theexact nature of the find at Lochlee. Next day Mr. J. H.Turner and I visited the locality, and in the course of a fewmore visits found ample evidence that the mound was reallyartificial, and had been at some former period the site of ahuman habitation. At the same time, as if to deepen ourcuriosity, a small canoe, hollowed out of a single trunk ofoak, was dug up by the workmen out of the moss whichformed the bottom of the lake.

Upon careful inspection, however, wenoticed towards the circumference of the mound the tops ofa few wooden piles barely projecting above the grass, whichat once suggested the idea that they might be portions of acircular stockaded island. Guided by these, I completedwhat we supposed to be the circumference
