Summary

This report is a Maryland Inventory of Historic Properties Archeological Site Survey, Basic Data Report for the site T14, 18CH226. This site is located on the east side of Cedar Point Neck, about 150m northwest of the Potomac River. A marshy unnamed tributary of the river lies 250m to the east. The site lies in a disced firebreak and is bisected by a road. The site is probably confined to plowzone.

This prehistoric lithic scatter, like 18CH225, has been disced and bisected by a road. Its contents are similar to 18CH225, and it is believed by Geo-Recon that these remains represent an occupation of similar age and iunction. This site held scattered quartz and quartzite debitage and bifaces.
