[Various (1971)] On the basis of this site, Funk has suggested the tentative recognition of a "Batten Kill complex" (Funk n.d.). Some points resembling the Genesee type were found on the Snook Kill site in Saratoga County, N.Y. (Ritchie 1958: 91-98, Plate 28, figs. 18, 19). The "Batten Kill complex" may have been a weak resident culture in eastern New York when the terminal Archaic Snook Kill phase spread up the Hudson Valley into this region from an eastern Pennsylvania No. 52, July 1971 9 center, as a probable derivative of the Lehigh Broad point complex, and the initial manifestation of the Susquehanna tradition to appear in New York (Ritchie 1961: 47-48; 1965a: 134-141). At the key site on the Snook Kill in the upper Hudson Valley, the phase is radiocarbon dated to 1470 B.C. ± 100 years (Y-1170). At the PetersAlbrecht site near Bushkill, Pennsylvania, on the upper Delaware River, a presumed diffusion route northward into New York, the Lehigh Broad point has a predictably earlier date of 1720 B.C. ± 100 years (Y1826) (Kinsey 1968). A similar date, 1720 B.C. ± 120 (Y-2587), was obtained on charred twigs and nuts found in a pit feature on the Miller Field site, also in the upper Delaware Valley, in association with a number of Perkiomen Broad points and a "Koens-Crispin" point, which I would classify as a perfect example of a Snook Kill point (Kraft 1970: 32. Compare his Plate 3, figure b, with Ritchie 1961: Plate 27).
