The 2004 SwissInfo article detailed the 19th century findings of the Bronze and Neolithic Age pile settlements placed on the small islands and the peninsulas submerged in the Lake Zürich, and during 2004 traces of the pre-Roman Celtic, the La Tène culture, agreements had been located on the hill of Lindenhof in the historic core of Zurich. Lindenhof rests atop the relics of the glacier and the top of the hill area consisted of the prehistoric, medieval and Roman remains and this has been listed as the Swiss heritage spot of the national significance.
These towns-like Celtic settlements have been constructed by the primary half of the first century BC; half of the century just before the Romans came, and in year 1747, the second century Roman tombstone has been located at the site, tolerating with the oldest testimony of the Turīcum, the Roman age name of Zürich. The archaeologists considered the Alamanni settled at the place from the fifth century and that this Roman castle situates until the seventh century, when this Ottonian dynasty armored it, but it has been abandoned during the late thirteenth century and those stones were pillaged.
During the year 1798, the people of Zürich pledge the oath into the foundation of Helvetic Republic on Lindenhof and in year 1851, this Masonic Lodge 'Modestia en cum Libertate' in 1771 constructed the masonic lodge and the temple on the part of the southern end of its square.
Some of the archaeological remnants of this pre-Roman Zürich age have been dug out since they are hidden below the dense urban core of the present city of Zürich. However the findings of the Celtic woman and man suggested the world of the ancient people, artifacts, and their tales might exist.
