Site Comments:

The site comprises a fairly extensive scatter of fragmented shellfish remains occurring in a well grassed dune slack alongside Kriedoring Road in Bekbaai. The dune forms part of a prominent limestone ridge running partially alongside St. Augustine Road. Dune mole rat activity is widespread on the site and many of the shell mounds contain bits of fragmented shellfish. Limpets (genus Patella) dominate the shellfish remains with some Black Mussel shell also occurring in places. Some dumping of building rubble occurs on the site. One snapped silcrete flake, several limestone flakes, one small quartzite hammerstone and one white mussel (Donax serra) scraper were noted on the site. No pottery was found.
