Comments
DkNv-2, Napao: This site, containing a Cody complex component, was discovered and excavated by Henri Liboiron with the assistance of Pat Froese and Gil Watson (D. Meyer, p.c. 1989). Details concerning the associations of these samples are not available, but the site has been deflated by wind erosion. Factors similar to those suspected at Niska (DkNu-3) may account for the spread of three radiocarbon dates. The youngest (S-2569) is too recent for the Cody complex. The oldest date (S-2890) may provide a minimum age for the Napao site.
