identical with the other, and they vary only in the number of stone 

 chips and other stone debris that cover the area. 



Site JfJfMcSl. — A small campsite m the Boydton Magisterial Dis- 

 trict at 78°17'32" longitude, 3G°o3'28'' latitude, had been badly stirred 

 up by plow action. There was no depth to the deposit, for directly 

 under the plow zone lay undisturbed red clay. A few sand-tempered 

 sherds and a few fragmentary projectile points were recovered from 

 the surface. 



Site JflfMcSB. — In an old cornfield in the Boydton Magisterial Dis- 

 trict at 78°22'4:3" longitude, 36°35'05" latitude, was fomid a small 

 campsite. The cultural deposit did not extend through the plow 

 zone, and a few sand-tempered sherds as well as a few projectile 

 points, were recovered from the surface of the site. 



Site UMc36.—Withm the Boydton Magisterial District at 78°21' 

 58" longitude, 36°34'47'' latitude was located a village site, 150 feet 

 long by 100 feet wide, in an old cornfield that had been turned into a 

 pasture. A number of sand-tempered sherds and some projectile 

 points were gathered for study purposes. 



Site JfIi.Mc37. — A fairly large number of sand-tempered sherds and 

 some flint artifacts were gathered from an old village site in the 

 Boydton Magisterial District at 78°21'47" longitude, 36°34'42" 

 latitude, that co veered an area 150 feet long and 75 feet wide. This 

 field was once planted in corn but had not been farmed for some time. 



Site J^l^McSQ. — This village site in an old cornfield lay in the Boyd- 

 ton Magisterial District at 78°24'43" longitude and 36°34'45" lati- 

 tude and covered an estimated area 50 feet long by 35 feet wide. Here 

 a number of sand-tempered sherds, as Avell as a few projectile points, 

 were gathered from the surface of the site. A series of test pits were 

 sunk into the occupational area, and it was then found that the cul- 

 tural deposit only extended 0.3 foot below tlie plow zone. Bits of 

 charcoal, wood ash, and a few flint chips were scattered through this 

 dej)osit. 



Site 4If.Mc51. — A village site 150 feet long and 100 feet wide was 

 situated in the Boydton Magisterial District at 78°28'16'' longitude, 

 36°34'13" latitude. Apparently the cultural material covered a much 

 larger area tlian that in which it was originally deposited, since there 

 was no depth to the cultural debris and all of it was practically in- 

 corporated within the plow zone. The largest number of sherds re- 

 covered during the survey from any site within the reservoir basin 

 came from this site. 



Site Jf.IfMc62. — On a primary levee of the south bank of the Eoanoke 

 River lay a small campsite 50 feet long by 35 feet wide that had been 

 planted in corn. The soil was loose and sandy, and cultural evidence, 

 scattered well over the entire area, consisted mostly of stone chips, 

 broken stones, and an occasional sand-tempered sherd. Additional
