- FaNp-7, Rocky Island: Test excavations yielded two projectile points, a biface and an end scraper near a hearth. A charcoal sample from the hearth provided a radiocarbon date. One of the projectile points resembles the "Un-named Complex" at the Sjovold site (see Dyck, 1983: Fig. 10.23c) which is now incorporated into a revised concept of Besant (Dyck and Morlan, 1995).
