MACROFLORAL AND AMS RADIOCARBON AGE DETERMINATION OF SAMPLES FROM SITE ESS-2019-BEN-088, WHITE SANDS MISSILE BASE, OTERO COUNTY, NEW MEXICO
Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings
Year: 2020
Summary
Site ESS-2019-BEN-088, a prehistoric lithic and ceramic scatter, is situated in the Tularosa basin within the White Sands Missile Range (WSMR) of southern New Mexico. This site contains three high density artifact concentrations and three thermal features. All three thermal features were sampled for macrofloral identification and two features contained sufficient charcoal that individual pieces were submitted for identification. All three features were AMS radiocarbon dated to identify the time period represented by these features.
