There are more Dalton sites and points known in northeastern Arkansas than elsewhere and so Morse describes land use, settlement patterns, community structure, and tool kits for the central Mississippi Alluvial valley. Other point types, their locations, and their development within the southeastern United States are briefly discussed.
