Mumpf
Mumpf is a municipality in the district of Rheinfelden in the canton of Aargau in Switzerland. History The area around Mumpf was prehistorically settled. In 1991 a mid to late neolithic fortified settlement was excavated on the ''Kapf/Chapf'' hill. This settlement was surrounded by a huge moat, and presumably protected by palisades. Inside the settlement wooden beams, fire pits, a clay pit and numerous stone tools were found. In addition, many individual Stone and Bronze Age objects have been found throughout the municipality. An Iron Age midden heap was found at Rifeld. Below the ''Gasthaus'' (combination hotel and restaurant) Anker are the foundations of a Roman small fort from the second half of the 4th Century and a nearby soldier's grave from the same period.
