Notes: Offprint.  Anthropological Papers No. 13.  Originally published by Nevada State Museum, October 1967.  “At the Tule Springs Site, located 10 miles north of Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada, extinct animal bones and artifacts have been found in fine-grained sediments forming the surficial deposits of the Las Vegas Valley.  Over 7,000 feet of bulldozer trenches and archaeological excavations provided an unusual opportunity to study the late Quaternary sediments of the valley and to determine the chronostratigraphic position of artifacts, faunas, pollens, samples and radiocarbon samples.”  (From the Abstract).  From the library of the late archaeologist John Otis Brew, his signature on cover.
