Archaeological Investigations at the Double Flute Folsom Site (LA178142), New Mexico

ABSTRACTIn May 2017, the QUEST Archaeological Research Program (Southern Methodist University) investigated the Double Flute Folsom site (LA178142) in Socorro County, New Mexico. Intensive surface survey and excavations were performed to determine the nature and extent of Folsom activities, the stratigraphic integrity of archaeological deposits, and their paleoenvironmental context. The site exhibits a sparse lithic scatter and little stratigraphic integrity. Double Flute is a small, ephemeral Folsom locality.
