Bivalve and gastropod remains were excavated under the direction of Howard D. Winters during June 1961 at the Riverton Site, Illinois (11CW170). Remains were screened with unspecified mesh size; however, it is presumed that 1/4" mesh was used. Five 5 foot squares were excavated. Levels were excavated in 6" increments. Dr. Paul Parmalee analyzed the bivalves. Dr. Parmalee only recorded attributes for the following variables: taxon, and the number of identified specimens.
