Additional information
Other sources give the Borden number as AaHq-1, but Cooper and Savage (1994: 52) use AaHr-4.
Comments
AaHr-4, Laramie: Cooper and Savage (1994: 52) note that the avian and fish resources of the area are probably under-represented in this fauna. No strong seasonal procurement focus appears in the analysis, and the campsite may have been visited at various times of the year. Artifacts include several probable awls and a portion of a possible turtle rattle.
