So, I am curious about Indian campsites.
Living in Colorado and being pretty much a newbie I have noticed that most of the pieces I have found are found on a hillside rather than flat ground. Common sense tells me the Indians did not camp on the side of a hill/mountain. I suppose over time weather and water and wind can wash and blow things around to a certain degree.
Anybody here have any thoughts on this? Where do most of your finds come from in relation to where the "Campsite" is? Am I wrong in thinking the Indians did not set up camp on the mountainside? Maybe what I am thinking is a camp is really not a camp? The last place I found and assumed is/was a camp were lots of flakes and materials scattered about. Found a broken piece, a bi-face there but again, on the side of the hill.
Thanks for any input!
