Abstract
Quartzites from quarries at Flint Hill, South Dakota and Spanish Diggings, Wyoming were examined using a binocular and petrographic microscope. A textural difference was discovered between material from the two quarries. Artifacts and debitage from the Hudson-Meng site (25 S x 115) was then examined and compared with quarry material. Tentative quarry affinities have been assigned to a portion of the Hudson-Meng collection.
