Unmodified Shell Item Number: 45SJ186/82 from the The Burke: University of Washington
Seven broken mussel shells, two clam shells. Found in a box labelled "sj186 Bone and shell". The artifacts in this level bag are assumed to be associated with the Burroughs 1949 excavation, based on the site and designations on the bag, as well as the date of the excavation. Many similar level bags were found in the Archaeology Lab in 1997-1998. There is no level bag list in the documents (see Burke Archives) from Burroughs' excavation, and the level bags were not numbered. As a result, we have assigned each level bag a number based on the site number. L.Phillips, 4/28/98
