- Comments
- EgPm-126, Cinema Park: A buried hearth and bison bones were found in the wall of a utility trench exposing the fill of Terrace 2. Bison bones were observed in more than one level, some of them exhibiting signs of having been butchered. The hearth lay more than 1 m below the modern surface, and a date was obtained from a bison scapula near the hearth but at a deeper level.
