Comments
DjPp-15: A campsite is located adjacent to Allison Creek, and a single event bison kill is situated 240 m southeast of the camp. RL-868 is presumed to date the Pelican Lake points, although some older point styles were also found at the site. It is not clear whether the date was obtained from the campsite or the kill.
