1 Deer antler headdresses, without copper, appeared in the Belle Glade site, south Florida. Here, though occurring on a much later time horizon, their presence substantiates Webb and Haag's thesis that this general type of ceremonial headdress harks back to the Eastern Archaic. Many aspects of Florida Glades culture are definitely Archaic from point of view of typology (Willey, unpublished ms.).

2 A burial mound near Moundsville, West Virginia, the Natrium Mound, yielded “modified tubular pipes of stone.” This mound, recently excavated by Mr. Ralph Solecki, Smithsonian Institution, is Adena in type (personal communication with Solecki, February, 1949).
