Comments
FbIx-2, Ouimet: This is a stratified site containing, from top down, a Blackduck component, a Laurel component, and a possible Archaic component. Wright regards S-464 as appropriate, while S-469 is much too late. The latter was an extremely small sample. This site represented the first discovery of Laurel in the Hudson Bay drainage.
