Comments
KePl-1, Frank Channel: This is the type site for a late phase of the Taltheilei tradition. GaK-1865 should date the Lockhart horizon. Noble found GaK-1865 acceptable, about a century older than expected. GSC-1559 was slightly younger than expected, possibly due to rootlets and small sample size.
