Context
attached to a basalt flake found in clay-rich alluvium, 1.6 m above mean high tide, 30 cm depth, exposed in a stratigraphic section
Comments
FcTv, Arrow Creek 2, 925T: This site is situated at the modern tidal limit with deposits as much as 5 m above mean high tide. The artifact distribution and context suggest discard into the intertidal zone or secondary deposition into subtidal sediments. In addition to seven dates associated with artifacts and cultural features, Fedje, et al. (1996b: Table 1) list 16 accelerator mass spectrometry dates of geoarchaeological significance.
