KRÄHENRIED, NEAR KALTENBRUNNEN IN THURGAU.

Mr. Raeber found evidence of the existence of a pile settlement in

a peat bog at Krähenried. Here the relic-bed was 5 or 6 feet deep,

and contained remains of piles, charcoal, hazel-nuts, fragments of

pottery, and a well-made celt of serpentine. The ornamentation on the

pottery consisted in many cases of regular rows of dots impressed on a

fine quality of paste with a smooth surface. The peat-cutters assured

Mr. Raeber that similar objects had been frequently found by them,

but, considering them of no value, they were thrown away. (B. 288.)
