DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman.

A total of 17 samples from a series of late Holocene terraces along Los Banos Creek, near the town of Los Banos in central California, were examined to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. Charcoal and other botanic components were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated. One site in the study area contained evidence for Native American occupation of the terrace.
