I am working in Western Australia. Up to now I have always found that
Varnum's 1980 identification and dating of nail types has fitted in with the
dates of my sites. However, I have just found his Rose head IIb nail type
(ca 1880-1893) at Kalgoorlie in a building which should not have been built
to at least 1902.
Does anyone else have similiar examples of this nail type lasting longer
than Varnum's original research suggested. Has he himeself done any follow
up work on nail types?
