MACROFLORAL, PROTEIN RESIDUE (CIEP), AND ORGANIC RESIDUE (FTIR) ANALYSES AND AMS RADIOCARBON AGE DETERMINATION OF SAMPLES FROM SITE 24DW0560, DAWSON COUNTY MONTANA

Summary

Site 24DW0560 is a buried lithic scatter or temporary camp located in Dawson County, Montana, approximately 10.5 km west of the town of Lindsay. Twenty-one samples were submitted for a variety of analyses to better understand resource use among prehistoric huntergatherer populations. Eight lithic samples were submitted for protein analysis. Of the seven rock and sediment samples collected from fire-cracked rock (FCR) features, three were submitted for FTIR analysis, one for macrofloral, one for macrofloral and protein control, and two for macrofloral and AMS age determination. In addition, one feature-fill sample was submitted for macrofloral analysis and as a protein control, two FCR samples were submitted for FTIR analysis, and three uncharred bone samples were submitted for AMS age determination on collagen.
