Abstract

The Guido site is a multi-component pre-Contact site in the Esopus drainage in New York's Mid-Hudson Valley. It was almost entirely excavated by avocational archaeologists from 1975 to 1981. Occupations found on the site range from the Late Archaic Vosburg phase to the Terminal Late Woodland Esopus Indians. Settlement pattern information includes a possible Orient phase house pattern, and subsistence data consist of Late Woodland storage pits which have produced dated evidence for the cultivation and storage of maize from the Oak Hill phase to pre-Contact. One human burial, that of an adult aged 30-40 years, of indeterminate sex, was also found.
