PROTEIN AND ORGANIC RESIDUE (FTIR) ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM CULP CANYON AND THE SOUTHERN SACRAMENTO MOUNTAINS, FORT BLISS MILITARY INSTALLATION, TEXAS

Author(s): Melissa K. Logan; Chad Yost

Year: 2009

Summary

Three projectile points and five feature fill samples were submitted for protein and organic residue analysis, respectively. The feature fill samples were tested for organic residues using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Residue analysis should provide information on subsistence, including materials processed, and possible functions of the artifacts and features, as well as shed light on group mobility.
