• recovery of Pa1eo-Indian material in a stratigraphic context <br />(either as a portion of an Archaic assemblage, or as a <br />definite Paleo-Indian occupation). <br />The literature review has identified a number of <br />sources relating to the archaeology of the study area. Each <br />of these studies has exhibited a different research orien- <br />tation. Several problems have been identified, but no <br />comprehensive understanding is available due to a lack of <br />an areal research design. Since the region lacks a compre- <br />hensive research framework and corresponding fieldwork, <br />it is not possible to make a predictive statement of what <br />one would expect to encounter within the study area. <br />Therefore, fieldwork was initiated with the hope of adding <br />to the regional data base, and with the research questions <br />previously mentioned in mind, but with no specifically formu- <br />Lated hypotheses to test. <br />• <br />C <br />21 <br />
