Abstract

Clusters of Paleoindian (Fluted Point Horizon) sites have become an accepted part of the late Pleistocene landscape. Over the last decade or so, similar clusters of Early Archaic (Corner-Notched Point Horizon) sites have been discovered as a result of CRM activities across southern Ontario. In this paper, the characteristics of these site clusters will be discussed as well as some possible interpretations based on the literature of ethnographically documented hunter/gatherer settlement patterns.
