The archaeological excavation at the Confluence Housepit site yielded a single housepit feature, two associated subfloor thermal basins internal to the housepit substructure, one thermal basin exterior to the housepit substructure, and associated artifacts. The deposit is dated to the Opal phase of the Early Archaic period through four conventional radiocarbon age estimates ranging between 5000 ± 40 and 5390 ± 40 years B.P. The housepit, associated features, and cultural materials are viewed as...

Archaeological excavations at the Ferris Dune site (48CR310) yielded two buried cultural components. Component 1 dated to the Late Prehistoric Uinta phase (950 ± 30 years B.P.), and Component 2 dated to the Late Archaic Deadman Wash phase (1920 ± 30 years B.P.). Component 1 represents a relatively well preserved hunting camp where at least two bison were processed, while the cultural materials associated with Component 2 were appreciably more ephemeral and representative of a nondescript short...

Investigations at the Cedar Gap site ( 48NA83) resulted in the identification of a buried bison bone bed, buried bison bone processing areas, stone circles and stone cairns, and an extensive scatter of chipped stone artifacts along with pottery fragments. A Besant/Woodland component is present which includes the bone bed and processing areas. A Late Prehistoric to Protohistoric component is also present in at least one stone circle. The site contains one of the relatively few Besant components...

Excavations for the Ur-Energy Lost Creek Project at the Battle Spring West site yielded remains from multiple occupations extending from the Opal phase through Uinta phase. The excavation data did not reveal evidence of longterm occupation, such as structural elements or semi-permanent, immovable processing tools such as large ground stone implements. Taken as a whole, the site assemblage suggests the archaeological remains are the result of hunting-related activities including camping, tool...
