EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the remains of a Bronze Age lake village near Morigen on the Lake of Bienne in Switzerland. The image showcases the fascinating discovery that occurred in October 1874 when the lake's shoaling led to the exposure of this ancient settlement. The print, created by an English School artist from the 19th century, offers a glimpse into a prehistoric world that once thrived in this picturesque Swiss landscape. The physical remnants of dwellers from centuries ago are visible, providing valuable insights into their way of life during the Bronze Age. Featured as an illustration for "Our Earth and Its Story" edited by Robert Brown and published around 1890, this engraving serves as a testament to humanity's curiosity about our planet's history. It is part of a private collection and is made available through Bridgeman Images. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene, we are reminded of how geography shapes our understanding of human civilization. This particular site holds great significance not only for Switzerland but also for Europe as a whole. It stands as evidence of early European settlements and contributes to our collective knowledge about ancient societies within the European Union. Through this print, we can appreciate both the beauty and historical importance found within these remains—a window into our past etched forever in bronze age artifacts on display against Switzerland's stunning natural backdrop.
