- Comments
- GkQn-100, Karpinsky: This single component campsite was uncovered by plowing. The projectile points range in form from side-notched to lanceolate with straight bases. All of them, and most of the scrapers, are made of black chert, and they appear to have been made with the same set of flaking techniques.
