DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman.

Pieces of charcoal recovered from two pithouse features at site LA 4921, Three Rivers, New Mexico, were submitted for identification. These charcoal samples are believed to represent horizontal timbers used in construction of the pithouse roofs. Radiocarbon dates range from 1330 to 1140 years BP, with two sigma calibrated ages ranging from AD 640-1020. These dates suggest occupation by the Jornada Mogollon.
