DOCUMENT
Full-Text
A total of five soil samples from along the Pecos River in eastern New Mexico were floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. These samples were recovered from a late Holocene terrace adjacent to the Pecos River immediately downstream of Sumner Dam near Santa Rosa, New Mexico. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated.
