- Comments
- FgNi-24, Harper Valley: According to D. Meyer, this is a late prehistoric bison kill site now largely disturbed by cultivation. A date on bone was obtained from a depth of 30 cm (S-2033), and charcoal from a depth of 50 cm yielded an older date (S-2031). A third date was obtained on bone from 70 cm depth (S-2032). Meyer notes that S-2031, misprinted as S-1995 in the date list (Rutherford et al., 1984: 287), is older than expected and might pertain to a Besant component at this site.
