Author(s): Kathryn Puseman
Year: 2000
Summary
Bulk soil samples from natural exposures or soil pits on stream terraces were floated to
recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon dating. Nine samples were obtained from the
Orchard Mesa Wildlife Area near Grand Junction, Colorado, and one sample was collected from
Las Vegas Wash near Las Vegas, Nevada. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were
identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated.
