Extract

Laboratory and library research, undertaken in the course of preparing a report on the Manakaway site of the East River aspect, Greenwich, Connecticut, have caused me to entertain doubts about some of the interpretations and divisions set forth by Smith in his Archaeology of Coastal New York (1950). This paper will air these doubts in the hope of soliciting comment and of stimulating interest in the unworked areas of this region, so that workers in the future will have more accurate data on which to build their conclusions.
