44JC298 Chronology

Because none of the features at JC298 contained more than five ceramic sherds, DAACS was unable to produce a seriation-based chronology for the site (see Neiman, Galle, and Wheeler 2003 for technical details). However, the site-wide TPQ and TPQp90 values of 1700 point to the occupation’s temporal placement in the late-seventeenth and very early-eighteenth century. The Mean Ceramic Date of 1751 is a misleading artifact of the wide date ranges, spanning the late-seventeenth through early-nineteenth centuries for the ceramic types that dominate the small assemblage (e.g. Colono, Redware, and Delft).
