As a consequence, we have had to draw from <br />whatever sources were appropriate and work with the small sample made <br />from surface collections. <br />Early Prehistoric Period: ?-7000 BC <br />The Early Prehistoric Period begins with the arrival of man in the <br />New World. Sites from this time period are scarce, especially west of <br />the Continental Divide. Thus, it is not surprising that none were locat- <br />ed in the study area. There is evidence of Paleo-Indian presence in <br />the northwestern Colorado-southwestern Wyoming area. The UP Mammoth <br />Kill site (Irwin, Irwin, and Agogino 1962) has a cultural deposit as <br />well as mammoth remains.
