Alternate Code & Name: Site 4
The site consists of a fairly dense scatter of MSA/LSA flakes and tools in an open eroded area. The site is located close to a perennial stream. Wind and sheet erosion as well as livestock activity is exposing the material underneath red Aeolian sands. Artefacts are made mainly from quartz, quartzite and felsite and chert, consisting of scrapers, blades, unretouched flakes and radial cores. Site density is 5 per m² over an estimated area of 50 x 50 meter. The site will not be impacted by the proposed development as no turbines or access routes are planned close to it.
