This tree is dead and gone. It died after housing was built adjacent to the site. Only a stump remains. The stump is still important but it is dead wood now and the setting is not as it was. The place where they want to put more homes is also a site, but collectors carried away most of the tools long ago, there is very little left.
For archaeologists to say that there is no evidence that people lived there is insane to me. There is plenty of debitage and pieces of tools as well, in a clearly defined site that absolutely was a habitation area. I saw a decent base from there, heavy grinding on the stem. It's thousands of years old. No bones remain from burials from that time. There are small stemmed points there also. I will be at that meeting.
