Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to present, for all $nge3$, very simple examples of continuous maps $f:M^{n-1}o{M}^n$ from closed $(n-1)$-manifolds $M^{n-1}$ into closed $n$-manifold $M^n$ such that even though the singular set $S(f)$ of $f$ is countable and dense, the map $f$ can nevertheless be approximated by an embedding, i.e. $f$ is a {sl near-embedding}.
