Comments
JdVa-5, Kusawa Bluff: A large multicomponent site with numerous occupations both above and below White River tephra. The number of occupations is uncertain. Of three samples submitted for dating, Beta-15501 contained insufficient carbon for a measurement, and the other two bracket the age of the earliest occupation.
