	abstract = {<p>The lithic assemblage from the Early Woodland affiliated Fitzgerald site is described. The site consists of four activity areas which are homogeneous in terms of tool forms and diagnostics. There are concentrations of exotic chert tools which may have once been caches. The exotic chert sources tend to be located in Michigan or northern Ontario. Diagnostic stemmed projectile points are most similar to Early Woodland examples from southern Michigan and northern Ohio, such as Kramer, Leimbach or Adena. Based on morphological similarities of the exotic tools such as the stemmed bifaces, the Fitzgerald assemblage is dated to ca. 600 B.C. to A.D. 1. The Fitzgerald assemblage represents the first reported non-mortuary late Early Woodland, non-Meadowood site in southern Ontario. Several implications of the Fitzgerald assemblage are discussed regarding the social, cultural, economic and environmental shifts which were occurring during the Early Woodland period in the lower Great Lakes area.</p>},
