- 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.
