- Comments
- BaGw-1, Beeton: Cooper and Savage (1994: 6) report that the analysis by Ambrose and Jones included a third of the faunal remains recovered in 1966-1969. The analysis by Gordon and Marchant covered all remains found in 1976. A diffuse economy, utilizing a wide range of locally available resources, perhaps year round, is suggested. Among 103 artifacts are beads, awls/punches, modified deer phalanges, and beaver incisors.
