An Assessment of Archaeological Data Quality (Legacy 07-353)
This pilot study explores issues involved in the quality of archaeological data used by the Department of Defense to comply with Federal statutes and regulations. The goal was to determine the potential value and benefit of establishing key quality indicators for archaeological data by examining the statistical implications of current approaches to finding and defining archaeological sites and the effects of these approaches on data quality.

IDENTIFICATION AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF CHARCOAL FROM THE ECHO PLAYA TRENCH SITE, CHINA LAKE NAVAL AIR WEAPONS STATION, SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA (2012)
Eleven charcoal samples from a trench at the Echo Playa trench site on the China Lake Naval Air Weapons Station (NAWS) in San Bernardino County, California, were submitted for identification and AMS radiocarbon dating. Radiocarbon ages will be used to constrain the timing of paleoearthquakes on the central Garlock fault. The oldest samples are expected to return middle- to late-Holocene ages.
