- Comments
- MjVl-1, Klo-kut: This is a deep, stratified late prehistoric site with an historic component near the surface. GaK-1265 was interpreted by W.N. Irving as a date likely preceding the on-set of human occupation at the site. RIDDL-140 dates an antler wedge illustrated by Bonnichsen (1979: Pl. VIII-19, #115-26).
