Context
Listed as unprovenienced because recovered during 1973 testing from a wood rat nest within the deposits (no FS # for the specimen). Presumably from Unit IV based on its age. Schroedl and Coulam (1995) suggest a Stratum IVd or V association. The grass (Sporobolous cryptandrus) is from a skin bag (fawn head) containing various items including 2 hemetite chunks, a bone awl, and a seed necklace (seed types=wild plum [Prunus americana], silverberry [Elaeagnus argentea], and juniper [J. cf. osteosperma] --see Hull 1980.
