* P3a. Description:
This site consists of a sparse scatter of lithic debitage centered around four lithic reduction loci features. The lithic material
includes basalt and chert. A bifacial core was discovered during site recording in one of the features. Overall, the site is in
moderately poor condition due to heavy traffic impacts from military vehicles. The site is located on a poorly formed desert
pavement surface truncated by rills.
