CHARCOAL IDENTIFICATION AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM SITE CA-SBA-647, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA (1995)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman.

Seven charcoal samples and one flotation sample were collected from two test units at Site CA-SBA-647 in southern California. The flotation sample and four of the charcoal samples were recovered from a concentration of shell with charcoal and darkened soil located in Unit 1. Three charcoal samples were collected from Unit 5. Macrofloral analysis is used to aid in determining if the shell concentrations represent a food processing feature, as well as to provide general information...

CHARCOAL IDENTIFICATION OF SAMPLES FROM SITE CA-LAN-857, CALIFORNIA (2009)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman. Melissa K. Logan.

Charcoal from two stone-lined earth ovens at site CA-LAN-857 in southern California were submitted for identification. The earth ovens are part of a series of cooking features recently exposed at the site, believed to be associated with the Tataviam cultural group. Identification of charcoal will provide information concerning woods burned as fuel in these features.

Continuity and Change: Part 2 (1997)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Donn Grenda.

Part 2 provides all of the necessary information by which the analyses, syntheses, and conclusions can be judged, including detailed unit, feature, stratum, and facie descriptions. All field methods and results are also presented here, including those for the geomorphological study.

Continuity and Change: Part 3 (1997)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Donn Grenda.

Part 3 presents the analyses of ecofacts. These studies provide the bridge between the environmental background provided in Part 2 and the material culture studies in Part 4. Ecofactual analyses are aimed at helping us understand subsistence patterns throughout prehistory. Both the paleobotanical studies and the faunal remains demonstrate 8,500 years of continuity.

Continuity and Change: Part 4 (1997)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Donn Grenda.

Part 4 presents the analyses of artifacts. Worked bone and lithic analyses inform on technology, whereas shell ornaments and beads provide hints about the more personal aspects of prehistoric life. Although minor changes in material culture emerge, the clear pattern is 8,500 years on continuity. Combined with the analyses presented in Part 3, these chapters provide the data to interpret site structure and address many of the research issues outline in Part 2.

Continuity and Change: Part 5 (1997)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Donn Grenda.

Part 5 synthesizes the information presented in the report and places the site in its regional context. Because the site provides considerable time depth, issues such as change in site structure and social organization are addressed. This part demonstrates the unique nature of the Elsinore site both from a culture history perspective and as a database for archaeological research. We use this high-information site to reevaluate prehistory and to explore the challenges hunter-gathers faced over...

EXPLORATORY POLLEN AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS FOR THE TALEGA SITE (CA-ORA-907), SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA (2006)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. R.A. Varney.

Thirteen pollen and eight phytolith samples collected stratigraphically from sediments at CA-ORA-907 were examined to provide information necessary to reconstruct the past vegetation at the Talega site. The stratigraphic sediments reach a depth of. at least 61 feet, where a radiocarbon age of 14,980 ± 70 BP was obtained. Most of the sediments examined accumulated between approximately 15,000 BP and 8,000 BP and are anchored by one or more radiocarbon ages.

Floatation Analysis report from subcontractor (1995)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Virginia Popper. Lisa Klug.

The analysis of botanical remains from the Lake Elsinore site (Riv-2798) was conducted to provide evidence of plant use by the prehistoric inhabitants of this site. Riv-2798 is an open air site located at the bottom of a small hill on the banks of the outlet channel for Lake Elsinore, Riverside County, California (Grenda, personal communication, 1995). Radiocarbon dates are not yet available for this site, however a preliminary analysis by the site’s investigators suggests that the site was...

IDENTIFICATION OF CHARCOAL FROM A FEATURE AT SITE CA-SDI-2776, SAN DIEGO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA (2006)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman.

A single charcoal sample from the Faraday Project, site CA-SDI-2776, in southern California was submitted for identification. This site appears to represent a prehistoric seasonal camp. Charcoal was recovered from Feature 0, a possible hearth feature with fire-cracked rock. Charcoal was identified to determine types of wood burned as fuel.
