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

The Fort Hill Site (46-Mg-12) located outside the city limits of Morgantown, West Virginia, in Monongalia County, represents relatively recent occupations, falling within the past approximate 1,000 years. An abundance of charred maize was recovered at the site, indicating that people living here were agriculturalists. Five lots of ceramics were chosen for residue analysis to identify foods that might have been cooked in the vessels.
