Comments
GjLp-3, Wuskwatim (UNR 48): A gun barrel was recovered from the hearth dated by GaK-6057, along with two rim sherds of Clearwater Lake Punctate ware. GaK-6058 appeared to be a peg, sharpened with metal tools and driven into the ground. It was located beneath Feature 75-8, a hearth lens. Considerable disturbance in the site area may have contaminated GaK-6060.
