DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings.

Monte Verde I, located in south-central Chile, has produced radiocarbon dates indicating pre-Clovis occupation. Dates concurrent with occupational surface artifacts and features at MVII, including lithic, non-lithic artifacts, architectural remains, and spatial patterning, indicate site occupation approximately 14,600 to 14,200 years Cal BP (Dillehay, et al. 2008:784). Excavations at MV-I have produced dates ranging from 16,000 ± 60 to 9320 ± 40 BP. Noncultural levels have been dated between...


POLLEN, PHYTOLITH, AND STARCH ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM MONTE VERDE I, MONTE VERDE II, AND PAICAVI, CHILE (2014)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings.

Five samples that included three pieces of groundstone, recovered from the buried surface of Stratum MV-7 in Area DW at Monte Verde II, dated to approximately 12,500 BP, were examined for pollen, phytoliths, and starch. Sediment also was collected from an ash/charcoal stain across the creek at Monte Verde I. It also was removed from Stratum MV-7, but was more deeply buried (1.3 m). A sample also was collected from a buried use surface in a ridged agricultural field at PaiCavi and was examined...
