Yes, loddy, you're right. We hot a 'bum' rap there. And with our timing..

As for that dig. That has got to be the most mind-numbing thing to do. Dig a little, map it out, brush the dust off the rock, dig, map, brush, dig, map, brush,dig,map,brush, digmapbrushdigmapbrush....
Just what was the find yield there? Any outlines of habitation, firepits, flint knapping stations?
And that was indeed a nun.

And that was indeed a nun.

They came up with lots of stuff..

They found out that the people were migratory and a lot of the chips and chert came from Maine. So they made their camps there on the land year after year. It was soon after the glaciers, and there was a river that ran thru our land all those years ago, and now it is all land, and the big river is gone. So the camp was beside the river.

Yes they did find one fire-pit on our land, (they have many sites locally now, but we were the first)and it is where they got the first idea that it was older than they thought. They came up with the 11,000 years from that.

They worked the site for two or three summers.. They covered everything over completely between summers. You would have never known that the land was disturbed. Grass grew over it all again.. The next year they would open new areas..or reopen the old one if they weren't finished. So we actually snowmobiled over the finds in the winter.
