Table one shows data on lithic tool counts from Weasel Cave by excavation unit and sublevel in layer 12. Since sublevel B is underneath A it is interesting to explore the degree to which the tool counts from the two sublevels may be the same or different.

units are 1 x 1 m sq designated uniquely on a letter

and number grid, so the K, L, M lines are all adjacent.

Like this looking down: K20, K21, K22, K23

L20, L21, L22, L23

M20, M21, M22, M23

The data is from a single block of 12 1 x 1 units.

5. Assuming that a line is the best model for the data, calculate and plot the least squares best fit line for the data.
