Comments
JeVb-15, Mendenhall: This small multicomponent site has been disturbed by development, but several intact areas were discovered. They produced evidence of microblade technology and native copper manufacture. Two dates suggest a late persistence of microblade technology in this area, although Hare (1996:34) notes that the high level of disturbance at the site makes the association tenuous.
