DhRk-8, Maurer: Borden (1975: 77) states: The Maurer site is of special significance since the large lithic assemblage recovered was associated with a rectangular house depression. Many of the chipped stone tools manifest strong affinities with those of the Eayem phase. However, a microblade industry is present, and strangely absent are ground stone implements and decorative items. Schaepe (1998) presents an analysis of the house and its contents.
