- GcEl-26, Rivière Caniapiscau: Taillon and Barré list this as a Shield Archaic site, whereas Denton includes it in a list of late prehistoric sites. Comments by D. Denton: Although we were initially surprised by this relatively early date, it is entirely plausible. Given the good context of the sample, it must be accepted.
