Comments
AlDf-3, Port Joli #8 = Post Office site: Erskine described this as an eroded site which was used over several centuries but was stepped rather than stratified. S-155 came from a level containing remains of Erskine's "Upper Bear River" culture, and the resulting date was considered entirely satisfactory.
