THE first account of the Irish crannoges, by Sir W. R. Wilde, dates back to the year 1839, and the Lake Dwellings of Switzerland, which have shed so much light on prehistoric archæology, were discovered in the year 1853; yet the first scientific account of any similar dwellings in Scotland was in the paper by Mr. Robertson, read before the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland in the year 1857.
