- Comments
- GhPh-102, Broadbent: The site is situated on a fairly level bench about 3 m above the present lake level. It is a campsite that may have been occupied over a long period of time, but its record suffers from compressed stratigraphy. S-518 can be associated with about 20 artifacts from the thin Ah horizon, including two small corner-notched points and a small side-notched point.
