Abstract
In this document MacNeish and Wilner describe and type the projectile points, nonhaftable bifaces, unifaces, ground and pecked stone (manos, metates, milling stones, mullers, paint palettes, hammerstones, and mortars, and a stone pipe and a ground obsidian shaped into a cruciform), bone and shell beads and ornaments, debitage, and ceramics - which seems to come from only two vessels. They also discuss the dating of the shelter.
