Description
Book SynopsisAlthough the Burton Acres Shell Midden site had been the focus of preservation efforts, little was known about the site until a winter storm that caused severe erosion. This book continues that discovery process, presenting and explaining the data gleaned from the site and offering interpretations based on the various objects found at this place.
