IDENTIFICATION AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF DETRITAL CHARCOAL FROM AN UNNAMED ARROYO UPSTREAM OF THE TOHAJIILEE DAM ON THE CANONCITO NAVAJO RESERVATION, NEW MEXICO (2010)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman.

Three detrital charcoal samples were examined for the presence of organic material suitable for radiocarbon analysis. A single snail shell sample also was submitted. These samples were collected from an unnamed arroyo upstream of the Tohajiilee Dam on the Canoncito Navajo Reservation in central New Mexico. Detrital charcoal fragments were separated and identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated. A single sample yielded sufficient material for AMS radiocarbon dating.
