Extract

In a recent article by John M. Goggin the Kissimmee region of Florida is said to be little known archaeologically and only a few sherds are mentioned. Although Goggin Has made his analysis primarily on the basis of pottery types, he does mention other artifacts in some instances, so that his silence on projectile points in the Kissimmee region may be indicative of meagre or non-existent data.
