Abstract

The Waugh site (34HP42) was discovered in January, 1991 in Harper County, Oklahoma as a concentration of bison bones eroding from a stream margin. A Folsom projectile pointwasfoundwith the bones. Professional excavation began in 1991 and continued in 1992 and 1993. In 1992, testing 100m to the south of the bone bed revealed a hearth feature which provided two radiocarbon dates of ca. 10,390 years BP. This paper summarizes the data collectedfrom the faunal remains pertaining to minimum number of individuals, skeletal element frequency, sex composition, and site formation processes.
