Excavations of the Round Mountain Gold Corporation Shoshone Creek Data Recovery Project have exposed a large paleo-channel or levee, a cache of flakes, multiple thermal features, and a possible midden or occupation surface at the site. Samples including a soil sample from a hearth, a fire-altered rock from another hearth, and a ceramic fragment were submitted from Site CrNV-61-8850 for phytolith and starch analysis to better understand economic activities at this site.
