Abstract
The GC-123 site was located and investigated by Buddy C. Jones during his years of archaeological work and surface collecting at numerous aboriginal sites in the mid-Sabine River basin in East Texas. The site is in south-central Gregg County, on Rabbit Creek (a northern-flowing tributary to the Sabine River), but only a few miles from the Sabine River valley. The site is notable for its ceramic sherd assemblage. Based on characteristics of Woodland period ceramics from the mid-Sabine River basin, including sites such as 41HS231 and 41RK562 (see Dockall and Fields 2011; Dockall et al. 2008), Hawkwind (41HS915), Folly (41RK26), Herman Ballew (41RK222), and Resch (41HS16, the GC-123 site appears to be a single component Woodland period occupation.
Highlights
The shcrds appear to be from a single component Woodland period occupation
The occurrence of Cooper Boneware sherds at GC-1 23 suggests that the Woodland period occupation took place sometime prior to ca
A.D. 400 (e.g., Ellis 2013:173)
Summary
The small sample (n=26) of plain ware sherds from site GC-123 in the mid-Sabine River basin are from thin and thick-walled grog-tempered and thick-walled bone-tempered vessels, likely including both Williams Plain and Cooper Boneware.
