- Comments
- EfKv-6, C5-b: Wheeler viewed this as an Agate Basin site and rejected both dates from the Geochron lab. However, DIC-1218 appears to confirm the age, and Buchner lists the site as a possible McKean component. Following two decades of additional research, the site may be seen as a manifestation of the Shield Archaic.
