. Notizen von Standorten von Huron Dörfer in der Gemeinde Tiny, Simcoe County, und angrenzenden Teilen. Vorbereitet mit Blick auf die Identifizierung der Dörfer besucht und beschrieben von Champlain und die frühen Missionare. Teile der beiden Townships sind hügelig. Die Enden von zwei langen Graten kommen aus den angrenzenden Ortschaften entlang der Westseite, der eine aus Medonte in Nord-Orillia, der andere aus Orointo Süd-Orillia. Außerdem verläuft ein langer Grat über mehrere Kilometer durch die Ortschaften, nahe dem Lake Couchiching und parallel dazu. Diese markante Linie des hohen Bodens, die einen Nord-Osten nimmt

. Notes of sites of Huron villages in the township of Tiny, Simcoe County, and adjacent parts. Prepared with a view to the identification of those villages visited and described by Champlain and the early missionaries . parts of both townships are hilly. The ends oftwo long ridges come out of the adjoining townships along the westside, — the one out of Medonte into North Orillia, the other out of Orointo South Orillia. Besides these, a long ridge runs through bothtownships, near Lake Couchiching and parallel with it, for severalmiles. This prominent line of high ground, which takes a north-easterly direction, is known locally in North Orillia as The Ridge.It extends as far as the ninth concession of that township, and owingto its isolated position, it is quite a conspicuous feature in the land-scape. It deserves our special attention, as it is, in a sense, thebarrier that holds back the waters of Couchiching from pouringdirectly over to Georgian Bay, deflecting them by the Severn River. At the town line between thenorth and south townships, there isa break where The Ridge inNorth Orillia is cut oft from thehigh ground in South Orillia.Branches of Silver Creek take risethis £ap, becoming fair-sized. m streams; and the Midland Railwayutilizes it for a passage. Villagesites of the early Huron period, some of them quite populous, arefound generally along The Ridge, but are more numerous in thevicinity of the Silver Creek open-ings than elsewhere. The Algonquin shorelinegirdles these hills or ridges, as else-where ; and this extinct shorelineis marked on the accompanyingmap to give the altitudes of thedifferent parts of the townships.The Algonquin is a strong shore-line everywhere, but in the Orilliatownships it is even stronger thanelsewhere. The main cutting isvery distinct, and about sixty feet lower the base of the submergedfilling also becomes a well-developed shoreline. The term, as used inthis report, applies to the main cutting. This main strand of theshoreline,
