122 : 3. In the Introduction, p. 2, and elsewhere Keller says regarding
cattle: “Cattle were kept, not on land, as in the Terramara region, but
on the platforms themselves, out in the lakes. Many charred remains of
stables and stable refuse have been taken from the lakes, but only from
certain parts of the sites, between those of the houses.” See also
Schenck, p. 188.
Rice Holmes, pp. 89–90 of _Ancient Britain_, says of that country that
agriculture was limited in the Neolithic, but flourished in the Bronze
Age.
122 : 14. The Terramara Period. Keller, pp. 378 _seq._ As related to
Switzerland, pp. 391, 393. For swamp and river bank sites, pp. 391, 397
_seq._ For bronze in Terramara settlements, p. 386. For the Upper
Robenhausian, see Schenck, p. 190, and Montelius, _La civilisation
primitive en Italie_. Peet, _The Stone and Bronze Ages in Italy_, and
Munro, _The Lake Dwellings of Europe_ and _Palæolithic Man and the
Terramara Settlements_ must also be read in this connection. Schwerz,
_Völkerschaften der Schweiz_, gives, for the average cranial indices of
the Lake Dwellers, 79 during the Stone Age, 75.5 in the Copper Age, and
77 in the Bronze Age. Of these last 14 per cent only were
brachycephalic, 20 per cent were extremely long-headed. In the Iron Age
46 per cent were brachycephalic. Consult also Deniker, 2, p. 316.

123 : 12. Salomon Reinach, 3 and 5; Deniker, 2, p. 314; and Peake, 2, p.
156, where we find the following: “Over the greater part of Sweden,—all,
in fact, except a strip of coastline on the western side of Scania,—and
all along the shore of the Baltic from the Gulf of Bothnia southwards
and westwards as far as a point midway between the Vistula and the Oder,
there are found abundant remains of a primitive civilization which dates
from the Neolithic Age, and indeed, from early in that age. This
civilization, known as the East Scandinavian or Arctic culture,
extended, perhaps later, over the whole of Norway.”
Consult the notes to pp. 125: 4 _seq._ for western trade.

Types in Wales_, p. 120. Rice Holmes, _Ancient Britain_, p. 380, says
they were confined to the South. No Paleolithic implements were found
north of Lincoln, or at least of the East Riding of Yorkshire.
