Comments
EfQv-5: This is a small pithouse village with six housepits. Material indicates that it is pre-Kamloops, but it is quite different from that at the Tate site (EfQu-19), which is also pre-Kamloops. It may be assignable to the Lillooet phase, ca. AD 1 to AD 400, in which case S-762 is too young. Richards and Rousseau (1987) list the site as EfQv-4 and tentatively assign it to the Kamloops phase, apparently accepting the date.
