Abstract

In a review of the report on the Shoup Rockshelters in East Central Idaho, Richard Forbis used typology to question stratigraphy and early dates for side-notched points. The points are parallel, obliquely flaked, and have an age comparable to those at a number of sites in the West. Correlation of natural deposits was based on the character and origin of the sediments, fluorine analysis of bone, rock-fall counts, and radiocarbon dates.
