General Note:
The 1st edition was a translation of the author's Pfahlbauten, six reports published in the "Mittleilungen" of the Antiquarian Association of Zürich, v. 9-15, 1854-66.

"In the present edition ... the whole of Dr. Keller's seventh report [in v. 19 of the "Mittheilungen"] has been incorporated. In addition to this it has been the endeavour of the translator to give short accounts of every settlement which has been carefully investigated, so that the work may ... now be said to contain an epitome, or nearly so, of all that is known of these peculiar structures."--Pref. to the 2d edition.
