PLATE III. No. 1.
WORK, NEAR KEWTOWN, CLERMONT COUNTY, OHIO.
'J Among the curious structures of the mound-builders, there are none more difficult to explain than this. On a detached ridge, composed of limestone gravel, covered with a clay loam, is a low wall, averaging two feet high, and fifteen feet broad, nearly in the form of a circle; although its north and south dia- meter is about twenty-five feet the longer. The average diameter of the circle is four hu...ndred and seventy feet. The flat ridge on which the figure A is situated, is about twenty-five feet higher than the adjacent plain; which is from twenty-five to thirty-five feet above the Little Miami Eiver. Outside of the circular figure, there is a space from twenty to thirty feet wide, on the natural surface of the ground.
On the two opposite sides of the circle, where it occupies the height of the ridge, is an external ditch, or excavation, enclosing about half the figure. It is from seventy to eighty-five feet broad at the top, and from twelve to eighteen feet deep.
