. 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 . and Lower Crossroads, and they are stillsometimes designated in this way. The Kaised Shorelines and Their Archaeological Significance. Heie, as in the other townships, one of the most prominentphysical features is the old shoreline markings. Tiieir greatheight above present water levels suggests what a vast periodof time has elapsed since the waters washed the highest parts ofthe nils. But there are evidences everywhere that they havedone so at some remote time. The plan of the accompany-ing map is identical with that of the other township maps that Ihave lately issued. Four of the most important shorelines aremarked, so as to give the altitudes of the different parts of thetownship. The Algonquin shoreline is taken as the base-line, and the other three shorelines are designated by their altitudeabove this one, viz., 110 feet, 230 feet, 310 feet, as it is the mostimportant. The strong shoreline at 310 feet above the Algon-quin is the highest one I have marked on the map, although there. Example of an Ice-Reef. (See lleport for 1S96, p. 70.) are markings still higher than this. Some of these raised shore-lines made numerous small islands, all of which it is impossibleto mark down on the map, but the main portions of them areshnwn. The 110 foot shoreline saw climatical conditions of akind widely different from what we now have. At this shorelineand also those at 70 feet and 40 feet (the two last not being map-ped), ice furrows or ice reefs become so numerous that a sub-arctic climate is distinctly shown. In the valley of the Willowor CrownHll Creek, and onward throughout the Central Basin ofthe township, referred to in the opening sentence of this intro-duction, there are many of these ice furrows of a serpent-like form. Their most remarkable feature is
