Comments
DeRw-18, Somenos Creek: Two dates from this Marpole phase site differ markedly from one another. It is possible that individuals 3a and 3b were interred into older midden deposits or that they actually are older burials than individual 1. Calibration of AECV-1689 with a marine model will render a date within the Marpole time period.
