Excavation of the Charles Tyler Site.
Date:
ND
Scope & Content:
Typewritten copy of notes on the excavation of the Charles Tyler site in Plainfield, Connecticut.
The excavation of the site was conducted in the summer of 1948 under a grant from the Yale Department of Anthropology by G. D. Pope, Jr.
Pope concludes" Making use of the common belief that New England represents cultural back–water archaeologically speaking, I should tentativley conclude... that the evidence available favors the interpretation of occupation, even if intermittent, by a single cultural group for a relatively extended period of time, and probably reasonably early in Laurentain time as this was manifested in New England."
