We have before now observed on several parts of the Coast small Villages inclosed with Pallisades, and Works of this kind built ^on eminences and ridges of hills, but Tobupia hath all along told us that they were Mories or places of Worship, but I rather think that they are places of retreat ^or Stronghold where they defend themselves againest the Attack of an Enimy as some of them seem'd not ill design'd for that purpose. We saw haled a shore under one of the Villages canoes which carried a small awning or little cabbin, a thing we have not seen before on this coast.
