- Comments
- EfPm-103: Studies at this site were inconclusive. Seven tipi rings were recorded, and two or three of them contained central hearths. Only 122 lithic artifacts, and no faunal remains, were recovered. The most diagnostic tool was a Kootenay Plains side-notched point. The radiocarbon date is ambiguou as it could represent either a Pelican Lake or a Besant occupation.
