1967 Pennsylvania Archaeologist 37(1-2):5-21 The Bristow Site, Thorah Island, County of Ontario, Province of Ontario, Canada Paul W. Sweetman |
Archaeological investigations carried on during 1961, 1962 and
1963 at the Bristow Site, Ontario, Canada, are discussed. This site
is located on Thorah Island which is in Lake Simcoe and not far from
Georgian Bay to the west. Test excavations yielded a variety of
materials, primarily pottery. The time interval represented by
occupations at the site is esti mated to have extended over 2500
years. Middle (and Late) Point Peninsula, transitional Late Point
Peninsula to Glen Meyer, Middleport, Lalonde, prehistoric as well as
historic Huron are among the kinds of potteries important at the
Bristow Site. |
1967 Pennsylvania Archaeologist 37(1-2):21-32 Brodhead Heller: A Preliminary Report on a Stratified Transitional Period Site on the Upper Delaware Charles W. McNett, Jr |
Exploratory excavations at the Brodhead Heller Site undertaken
during the summer of 1966 are described. This work was part of the
archaeological salvage program connected with the Tocks Island
Reservoir Project in the Upper Delaware River Valley. Significant
features and artifacts that were recovered are documented. Two
cultural manifestations were important: 1) a combination, terminal
Owasco-Late Castle Creek (ca. A.D. 1150) and a component somewhat
later than the Chance Horizon (post ca. A.D. 1475), and 2) a
representation of the Transitional Period Perkiomen Complex. |

The Dunlap Phase is considered a variant of the Laurentian Tradition that is closely related to phases known to occur at nearby sites in Ohio, southwestern Pennsylvania and northwestern West Virginia. |
