Site Comments:

Numerous artefacts were observed over a large area of some 120m2, but densities are medium to low for the most part though some zones contained higher frequencies of artefacts. The artefact scatter continues some 30m down slope where calcrete blocks and nodules are numerous and ubiquitous. Densities of artefacts drop off notably down the slope and peters out at the third GPS reading given above. The artefact scatter continues to the north to around the last GPS reading given above. This site is worth collecting and plotting as it may be very difficult to conserve. Also probably necessary to excavate a few shovel tests to investigate whether there are any in situ materials sub surface.

Directions:
Situated near the top of a steep, sparsely vegetated slope among medium to high densities of calcrete blocks and nodules. S34.09063 E22.13732, S34.09032 E22.13689, S34.09018 E22.13742, S34.09027 E22.13621
