Comments
KfNm-3, Hennessey: Noble regards the dates as demonstrating multiple occupation at Hennessey, since neither is associated with the 200 BC - AD 100 Hennessey complex of the Taltheilei tradition. I-4550 belongs late in the Frank Channel phase, while S-587 falls within the Narrows phase of the Taltheilei tradition.
