Comments
BcHa-7, Thomoson: Excavations at this quarry site revealed seven deeply buried strata of chert in the lower portion of the Fossil Hill Formation. A large assemblage of recovered artifacts includes some formal curated tools, some of them of Palaeoindian affiliation. Two radiocarbon dates correspond to the middle Archaic cultural period.
