The Sassafras Site, designated RI-55, is a prehistoric archaeological site in Albion, a village of Lincoln, Rhode Island. The site was discovered by archaeologists while surveying an area for a potential replacement for the Albion Street bridge,[2] which spans the Blackstone River between Lincoln and Cumberland. The site encompasses a regionally significant quartz stone tool workshop.[3]
The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]
