The Shoop Site is a prehistoric archaeological site in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, preserving a large Paleoindian campsite dating to about 9,000 to 9,500 BCE, among the region’s earliest known human traces. First identified in the 1930s by George Gordon and later studied by Frank Soday, it has yielded about 7,000 artifacts across at least 37 acres. Its fluted projectile points and heavily reworked endscrapers show repeated tool reshaping and reuse, while the fact that about 98 percent of the stone came from hundreds of miles away makes the site especially important for studying Paleoindian mobility, tool maintenance, and long-distance raw material movement in eastern North America.
