Comments
DgPl-85: Three occupation levels were distinguished within 25-40 cm of colluvium. The uppermost, Level 3, was the best defined and yielded a very sparse scatter of fired rock and occasional bones and artifacts assigned to the local Crandell Mountain phase on the basis of a Timber Ridge side-notched point. Both dates from Level 3 are anomalously young for this Avonlea point style.
