Comments
AlGs-10, Boys: This is a 0.5 ha palisaded village with at least two houses. It is assigned to the Pickering phase of the Early Ontario Iroquois tradition. Cooper and Savage (1994: 13) note that the fauna seems to represent an unspecialized pattern of exploiting locally available fauna. The evidence allows for the possibility of year-round occupation.
