Crews returned and continued shovel testing the following summer from July 25, 1979 to July 30, 1979. Shovel test pits were excavated throughout the test area which encompasses the two separate swampy areas on the Harris farm. A single artifact was uncovered by the SUNY at Albany 1978 summer investigation. This bovid...

The site was initially investigated on July 23, 1975. Investigations conducted between July 6, 1979 and July 23, 1979 were intended to test the hypothesis that Archaic and later period camps existed in this area and to determine the sizes of the site loci and the...
