Cultural materials have been periodically exposed in the deeply 

 eroded lane connecting the Charles Forst farmstead with the pastures 

 beyond. No tests were made, but artifacts appear to derive from 

 the surface of the loess, just below the sod line. Mr. Forst has ac- 

 cumulated a small collection, which was made available for photo- 

 graphing. 



ARTEFACTS 



Only a brief field examination of the Forst Collection was prac- 

 ticable. 



1. Stetnless projectile points. 



a. Asymmetric triangular body, flat base (sample: 1). 

 6. Small triangular body, deep side notches, convex base (sample: 1) (type 

 3, Cole and Deuel, 1937, p. 55). Suggests Maples Mills. 



2. Stemmed projectile points. 



a. Large triangular body, abrupt shoulder, stem form unknown (sample 2), 

 6. Medium size, triangular body, squared or slightly expanding stem, flat or 



convex base (sample: 7) (type 1, ibid., pp. 53, 55). "Woodland" 



points. 



c. Medium size, triangular body, corner-notched, acute barbs, expanding 



stem, conclave base ( sample : 1 ) . 



d. Small subtriangular body, wide corner notch, expanding stem (sample : 1). 



e. Large, markedly convex, triangular body, deep comer notches, stem 



fragmentary (sample: 3) (type 1, ibid.). Conventionally, a Hopewell 

 form. 

 /. Leaf -shaped body, contracting, tonguelike stem (sample 1) (type 2, ibid., 

 p. 55). Suggests Red Ochre form. 



ANALYSIS 



In total, a small range of projectile point types is present, but a 

 range of types tentatively assignable to a considerable temporal span. 

 Early, Middle, and Late Woodland forms, as defined for the Illinois 

 Kiver Valley, are present. (Cf. 13JH201, above.) 



SITE 13JH210 



The occupation area is situated on the crest of the first ridge west 

 of the Iowa River, directly opposite Sites 13JH207 and 13JH208. 

 No tests were possible nor were surface finds noted in situ. The 

 previous owner, Albert Bane, has gathered a small collection from 

 the site as a result of long-continued farming activities, but cur- 

 rently it is not available for study. 



SUlViMARY OF CONCLUSIONS 



The archeological manifestations in the Coralville Reservoir are 

 characterized by a minimal quantity and by a restricted variety of
