Comments
BdHh-5, Hunter: Cooper and Savage (1994: 44) note that the recovered fauna came from a salvage excavation (10 sq m) of the site's threatened area in 1987. Recovery was by trowel and screen, and 84% of the specimens could be identified below the class level. Identified species are those expected from a fishing camp on the edge of a large lake. Spring through autumn occupation is suggested.
