<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The Bear Creek site in suburban Seattle is the first archaeologically excavated site dating to the Late Pleistocene-Holocene (LPH) transition in Western Washington that has
yielded lithic artifacts. The information it provides regarding very early settlement, technology, and land use in the Puget Lowlands is therefore singular at this time. Researchers will present the results of the 2013 large-scale data recovery excavation
and subsequent analyses. </span><span style="font-size:9.5pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
