Two sandstone fragments, two projectile point fragments, 1 complete projectile point, and human remains. Artifacts are listed as AFOs due to storage in same box as human remains. Human remains are one maxillary molar with significant damage to the enamel, five pieces of skull fragments with significant cortical bone damage, and one intact medial phalanx, hand, that also has cortical bone damage
