Notes | The author studied a collection of artifacts gathered by a forest ranger over 30 years. She found uniform manufacturing methods, a “striking uniformity of size” of artifacts, and an absence of the tools used to manufacture artifacts. She concluded that the artifacts were the products of a homogeneous culture functioning at a relatively simple level, and probably came from isolated fishing camps.
