A cursory examination of the vessel designs suggests this site may belong to the Whelan phase
Summary
One possible Alba point was lying near these vessels, but it is unknown if it was a deliberately placed grave good Both graves contained several small plain jars or bowls (see Figure Sa-d). In the wash area--probably the location of the engraved bottle with the rattlesnake motif--was found the platfonn pipe and about two-thirds of a small probable Pease Brushed-Incised jar. This Caddo site was excavated by Ed German and Ralph Nicholas of Daingerfield in early 1958. The predominant vessel shapes at Graydon Adkins #2 were small simple jars and undecorated bowls, but two conical bowls and a tapered neck bottle (of Early Caddo~m fonn) were in the collection (Figure 19). Other grave goods included a few well-made arrow points and a platform pipe
