Previously W. Krull conjectured that every completely integrally closed primary domain of integrity is a valuation ring, The main purpose of the present paper is to construct in §1 a counter example against this conjecture. In § 2 we show a necessary and sufficient condition that a field is a quotient field of a suitable completely integrally closed primary domain of integrity which is not a valuation ring.

2) A ring is called primary if it has at most one proper prime ideal.

3) Observe the fact that 2α ∉ G, because K is algebraically closed.

4) Since 2x ∉ G, we is uniquely determined by the relation we(x + e) =2x.

5) If α = λ0 or 2α = λ0, we see easily that ni0 = m— j 0 because α ∉ G. In this case, s = 0 is also clear.

6) Because o is integral over r, xo = x ∩ p = x ∩ q.
