The Witt Site is an archeological site near Tulare Lake in Kings County, California. It was found by Donald Witt, who collected artifacts of concave points, crescents, and fossilized elephant, bison, and horse bones. The site was apparently a good location for ambushing large mammals coming to the lake.[2]

A 10-acre (4.0 ha) area at the site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.[1]
