Comments
GbEk-1, Lac Shooliau-Shini, comments by D. Denton: The better definition of the hearth deposit in the case of structure 2 and the close association of the sample with this deposit provide a somewhat better context for QU-1195 than for QU-1193. Unlike structure 2, structure 1 has been significantly disturbed. Unfortunately the archaeological context provides little indication as to the relative antiquity of the two structures. Both dates are plausible, however.
