Comments
DhPj-31, Manyfingers: Excavation was focused mainly on a stratified sequence on the second terrace where an Avonlea component lay beneath two components attributed to the Old Women's phase. A test excavation on the first terrace produced a radiocarbon sample (S-722) but no diagnostic artifacts. The third terrace yielded evidence of a Pelican Lake occupation beneath an Old Women's component, but neither was dated by radiocarbon.
