ROI045, Mitigation of Three Multicomponent Sites in the Upper Wabash, Cass County, Indiana (1997)
Mitigation of approximately 25% of sites 12-Ca-234 and 12-Ca-236 to be destroyed by the widening of U.S. 24/35 near Logansport, Indiana, identified a light to moderate multi-component lithic scatter. Occupation at the site ranged from the Middle/Late Archaic through the Late Woodland. Excavation data suggests that the two sites were used as short term, small group camp sites. Information on seasonality and subsistence practices are not available because of either poor preservation or a general...
