Comments
DdGt-9, Réal: The site contains Woodland material and Archaic material. Marois comments that S-1149 indicates at least two occupations that are not stratigraphically distinguishable and are present and probably overlap in the Level 2 deposit. Both a scraper and a gun flint were recovered from the zone above Level 2. Many artifacts recovered from the surface probably belong to the Archaic period, as suggested by the S-1150 date. However, Level 3 is below the occupation zone, and S-1150 is not directly associated with the artifacts.
