I went to the museum hoping to see the mammoth tooth. They have changed the signage which used to say the tooth was around 12 thousand years old. Now it says that it is from the "Pleistocene" which ended around 12 thousand years ago. Much better!
This is about rock piles and stone mound sites in New England. A balance is needed between keeping them secret and making them public. Also arrowheads, stone tools and other surface archaeology.
I imagine they are likely to have hundreds or thousands of artifacts in storage.
