- Comments
- FiTx-3, Lawn Point: This is a multicomponent site, the upper levels, components 1 and 2 (S-678), with a sparse lithic assemblage including large pebble choppers and tool flakes associated with two rock-ringed hearths. Two lower levels, components 4 and 5 (GaK-3271, GaK-3272, S-679) contained microblades, microblade cores, large prepared flake cores, specialized tool flakes, pebble choppers, hammerstones, and one abrasive stone. Except for GaK-3273, the dates are acceptable.
