SHELL 
One fragment of mussel shell was recovered from the surface. Pieces of shell 
were located in cache pits, but they were too fragmentary to preserve. 
HUMAN REMAINS 
One section from the left side of a mandible was recovered. The condyle 
has been broken off just below the neck, and a portion of the angle is missing. 
The mandible is fractured just in front of the mental foramen. Three molars 
are present in the bone; the first and second are quite flat on the top surfaces. 
This specimen was recovered from a cache pit. One small fragment of cranium 
was located in another cache at the site. No unnatural markings or scratches 
are present on the specimens. 
SUMMARY 
The data from the Warne site indicate that it is a component of the 
Glen Elder Focus of the White Rock Aspect. The main pottery type 
is Walnut Decorated Lip. A second ware, Group B, is represented, 
but in a small percentage—3.6 percent. A total of 83 miscellaneous 
sherds were recovered from the surface, but apparently they are not 
associated with the main occupation of the site. 
The economy of the White Rock people seems to have been based 
upon hunting, supplemented by primitive horticulture. Hide-work- 
ing tools, such as stone scrapers and knives, were most common. The 
serrated bone flesher and hide grainers were also employed in this 
industry. Cache pits, scapula hoes, and corn kernels give testimony 
to the presence of agriculture. Most certainly the people hunted and 
gathered the local biota during their occupancy of the village. 
Evidence of habitations is lacking. Possibly the people built struc- 
tures using light poles covered with brush or skins, as did many of 
the historic tribes. Neither human burials nor a burial area was 
located, but two specimens of human bone were recovered from the 
refuse pits. 
It appears that this village was occupied for a short duration, or 
at intervals, by a culture whose economy depended upon agricul- 
ture and hunting. ‘The site was occupied between hunts, during which 
periods the people planted and harvested from garden plots probably 
situated in the creek bottoms. 
DISCUSSION OF THE WHITE ROCK, INTERMILL, AND 
WARNE SITES 
It will be seen that the White Rock, Warne, and Intermill sites have 
a great majority of like traits. They are all located within a 3-mile 
area along White Rock Creek. Two of the sites, White Rock and 
Warne, are situated on the tops of flat ridges overlooking the north 
side of the creek. The Intermill site lies on the first terrace in the
