- Comments
- GcEl-24, Lac Delorme, comments by D. Denton: Even at one standard deviation there is slight overlap in the dates. Still, we believe that: (1) two habitations were built on the site, one associated with structures 2.1 and 2.2., and the other associated with structure 1.4, and two other aligned hearths; and (2) that the centroids of the dates correctly reflect the somewhat greater age of the former. This conclusion is supported by stratigraphic and preservational data.
