Remarks on collection strategies or artifacts	Low diversity in assemblage. Waste flakes only frequent in TU-B. Pottery most abundant in TU-A. Faunal bone abundant in all units.
Comments (Primarily temporal or functional interpretations)	Site is principally aceramic, Mount Taylor with localized St. Johns period component at southern end. Site appears to be a campsite, likely intermittent or short term based on density of artifacts. Mount Taylor, Orange, and St. Johns I components were observed and it is suspected that some St. Johns Plain and Orange pottery are contemporary.
