- AcHm-3, Wolfe Creek: This is a 16th century Neutral village. Cooper and Savage (1994: 105) report that excavation of 10% of the site included screening and flotation with faunal remains recovered from postmould and features. Evidence supports the concept of a year-round occupation but is strongest for spring and summer when fishing activity would predominate. Large mammals may have been the focus of procurement in autumn and winter months.
