Mr Clement h. Wragge, -who has been lecturing here and doing some exploring work in the far north, claims to have- discovered in the neighbourhood of the Bay of Islands

•'"'the- remains oi an ancient city or temple thpt probably dates back to tho time of sun worship."

He says: "The huge blocks of stone, some nearly 15ft long, wore evidently hewn by prehistoric man. Some have cupe> or holes scooped out. On the face are evidently written records of immense antiquity, and others are marked with long 'and short strokes, one being an ansated

cross."

'Mr Wragge has taken a series of photographs of their woird place, which is probably unique in New Zealand, "probably," he says, "dating back to the Megalithic track of ancient man when he was forced by change of climate to migrate from the northern to the southern hemisphere."
