Archaeologists from the Binghamton University Public Archaeology Facility, hired by Cornell University to study the proposed site for new athletic fields off of Game Farm Road in the town of Ithaca, recently identified a handful of artifacts tied to the Early Woodland phase of the Finger Lakes' Paleo-Indian culture. Site inspections identified three small areas with prehistoric artifacts, and a projectile point, chert flakes and shatter were recovered. A Phase 2 site examination will focus on the areas where artifacts have been identified, and more test pits will be dug to determine the site's significance. A related report is expected to be completed in mid-June. (May 30, 2003)
