There is an ongoing debate about the nature of artifact association and the expression of living surfaces in New England and Maritime Provinces shell middens. I focus this debate on a single shell midden where supposedly Early Woodland styles of projectile points are associated with Middle Woodland ceramics. These findings suggest that either a revision of the New England and Maritime Provinces Woodland sequence is necessary, or that we should rethink our models of shell-midden formation processes
