	abstract = {<p>Investigations on the Canadian Plains have been unsuccessful in differentiating between pre-contact projectile points recovered from One Gun phase sites\&mdash;an intrusive group to the region\&mdash;and points from the locally defined Cayley series, which are frequently used as diagnostic markers of the Old Women\&rsquo;s phase. This paper uses a variety of statistical methods to investigate similarities between points from the One Gun phase Cluny site, and points from the uppermost levels (Old Women\&rsquo;s phase) of the Head Smashed-In Buffalo Jump site. Metrics were collected on digital images from direct 2-D point scans to promote consistency, accuracy, and replicability. While population level differences were found, individual specimens could not be identified to their respective phase. In this case, projectile points are not reliable variables for linking components with phases in the protohistoric period, which suggests that the point type may be best described as a horizon style.</p>},
