Remarks: (1) Ananian and Rice (1991) recorded a very large area which they referred to as the They describe this vast area as a large occupation site with numerous house floors. A total of 46 depressions are depicted on the sketch map. At the time of the present site recording effort, numerous depressions were observed. However, most of these depressions were not associated with midden soil or cultural material of any kind. Soil samples were taken from a number of these non-cultural? depressions. It is thought that many of these depressions were derived by washouts of non-consolidated soil pockets, tree stump removal, or borrow pits for levee construction. Only two small areas of midden soil were discovered during our field visit This site record describes (2) Ananian and Rice (1991) reported in their site record for the - that many burials were recorded since the 1920s. However, after questioning Ananian and Rice, speaking with Mr. Angelo Brovelli (previous property owner), speaking with Don McGeein and Marie Moyer, and reviewing all known documentation, I can find nothing to substantiate their statement.

Riddell remarks that Grosscup erroneously placed the site on CCIC employee, JM, later (9/17/77) described it as Ridell described this site as an extensive habitation site which may represent a major late village for the region. He notes the area was used for borrow at one time. He observed dark midden soil, with no features and no artifacts. Whether these records correspond with the current location is uncertain.
