Comments
EbOp-44: This site is located on a small knoll on the valley wall. Three occupations were defined. Cultural materials indicate that the site probably served as a camp and primary processing area for bison killed in the vicinity. The three occupations are attributed to the Old Women's phase, the Besant phase, and the Pelican Lake phase.
