Archaeologists Find 10,000-Year-Old Site
Mon Jan 30, 6:30 PM ET

CORVALLIS, Ore. - Another archaeological site on the Southern Oregon coast has been determined to be about 10,000 years old, making it the second-oldest known site in the state, according to Oregon State University researchers.

The site on a bluff just south of Bandon included a large number of stone flakes, charcoal pieces and fire-cracked rock, according to Roberta Hall, professor emeritus of anthropology at Oregon State and principal investigator in the study.

There also is evidence of a stone hearth, Hall added.

"There are a lot of rock outcrops nearby that would make good sources for tools," she said. "And it appears that tool-making is one of the activities the site may have been used for. So there is potential to find much more there."

The site was discovered after researchers analyzed a site in 2002 at Boardman State Park north of Brookings, which eventually was dated at nearly 12,000 years old, making it the oldest coastal archaeological site in Oregon.
