A total of eight samples from geologic trenches at the 7 Lagos Project in Valdivia, Chile, were examined to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon dating. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated. Two samples appeared to contain charred material in sufficient quantities for dating; however, the charred material did not survive the chemical pre-treatment for dating. Half of the sediment retained during...
