Details:
Native Americans occupied Texas for at least 13,000 years before the first settlers of Old World heritage arrived. The nonperishable remains left behind at the campsites and other activity areas of these Native Americans in San Saba County typically include flint tools and flint chipping debris, along with burned rock fragments that lined campfire pits and earth ovens. Broken pieces of pottery and food remains that principally consist of bone and clam shell fragments are other artifacts found at the sites.
