Comments
EiBf-4, L'Anse Amour (Harp's Forteau Bay 3): SI-1798 dates peat blanket formation. SI-2305 was associated with a bipoint, bifaces, and a uniface; cultural affiliation is uncertain. S-2602 and S-2603 are from a feature located 40 m south of the "pseudomound"; S-2603 is markedly too recent and must have been contaminated.
