Princes bay, Princess bay (Map I). An

unexplored site at the bay, and another site marked by a shell-pit and scattered objects on the shore halfway to the lighthouse, all indicate native stations, probably for fishing purposes.

93. Segulne point (Map I). A camp-site,

probably a fishing station.

94. Woods of Arden (Map I). On the shore,

near the mouth of Great kills, there is a place which shows signs of native occupancy, but not of extensive character.

95. Shawcopshee, the modern Oakwood

(Map I). The probable name of the Great kills, which may have been the refuge, for about 16 years, of the Nayack natives when they removed from Long Island. At the head of the kills there

are signs of occupancy, but they are not indicative of long-continued residence.

96. Arrochar (Map I). An ancient settlement is indicated.

97. Stapleton (Map I). A station is recorded, but its position is indefinite.

98. Conykeekst (Maps I, IV). The tract

known by this queer title is now the modern Harlem, east side. A native fishing and oystering station evidently existed at 121st street, on the line of Pleasant avenue (or Avenue A), which probably bore the local name.

99. Shepmoes (Map VIII, A). At east 14th

street, probably near Second avenue, there was a small station or plantation, which may have been named from some nearby brook. (Colonial Docs. N. Y., vol. xiv, p. 110.)

100. Tubby hook (Maps I, V). At this point,

extending into the Hudson river at Dyckman street, there was a very ancient station, the extensive deposits of debris being located on the shore of the "Little Sand bay," on the south side of Dyckman street. It was recently explored by Alanson Skinner for the Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation.
