Comments
DjPn-90, Jensen Springs: Cultural materials are found on both side of a spring situated in a swale of a high bedrock ridge 60 m above the highest outwash terrace. The main site area contains five cultural components in stratigraphic sequence. The earliest occurs below pockets of ash interpreted as Mazama tephra. A large corner-notched point with pronounced tangs represents an unusual style. The date obtained for this component is somewhat younger than expected if the overlying ash is actually Mazama tephra.
