- Comments
- AeHj-2, Dymock: Cooper and Savage (1994: 28) report that two activity/ settlement areas, possibly temporally distinct, were identified. The subsistence pattern appears very similar for both. Hunting white-tailed deer and fishing were major foci, but a broad range of animal resources was exploited. The evidence supports spring, and probably also autumn, occupation. Nine artifacts include an antler flaker, modified beaver incisor, and pointed tools. Fauna: Agropyron or Elymus 4, Chenopodium 3, Portulaca 1, Rubus 34, Crataegus 2, Fragaria 1, Sambucus 1, Rhus typhina 1070, unidentified seeds 6, Juglans cinerea 33.11 g, unidentified nut 0.27 g
