- Description
- Excavating a Gal-dies camp that had been buried by sand a short while after occupation had ended. The fishing group had chosen this spot because the ephemeral water course provided comfortable sand to sit on. The small stream then flooded, burying the discarded flood refuse and the hearth. The situation involves many parallels with the KBS site. Ms. Diane Gifford (left rear) conducted the study and will publish detailed reports.

- Description
- Excavations nearby disclosed the existence of a dense patch of artifacts that had not yet been cut into by erosion. This patch has a diameter of 12 - 15 m. and contains more than a tone of stone, which was apparently imported by early man. This is the site of DE/89 horizon B. The material has been concentrated by current action in part of the seasonal streambed in which the early humans camped.
