A romantic theory ascribes this extraordinary act of self-destruction to an instinctive search for the lost Atlantis. Whatever the meaning of it, it is clear that migrations of this kind might account for the distribution of lemming remains far from the districts where they live and breed. It is inconceivable, however, that any migration of the banded lemming could extend from its present area of distribution to Germany, France, and England. Moreover, the occurrence of remains of young lemmings could not be explained by migration. In the gypsum quarries at Thiede, made famous by the researches of Nehring, lemming remains are very numerous, being found chiefly in the lower strata.

They are ascribed by Nehring to autumnal migration from the Harz Mountains. In the Elizabeth Hole near Neumiihle, in Bavarian Upper-Franconia, the lemming remains were only found in the deeper deposits, deeper than the remains of the Cave Bear and other diluvial animals. The Banded Lemming appears especially to be limited to the deepest cave strata, while Myodes obensis reach...
