Site C440-CA-I-01-121919 is part of a utility monitoring and trenching project outside San Diego, California. The site is assigned as a Kumeyaay occupation that likely dates between 6500 and 1500 BC. Two isolated handstones were examined for their starch and protein residue signatures. A soil sample exhibiting pieces of charcoal was processed to recover charcoal fragments for identification and an AMS radiocarbon date.

Moraga-2, is a Native American village site in San Pablo, California. A firepit and a stone mortar in a disturbed context both yielded charred nutshells for AMS radiocarbon dating to provide chronological information concerning occupation. In addition, six obsidian flaked lithics were submitted for XRF analysis in an effort to source the obsidian used.

Site 33LI1740 is located near a residential dwelling in Licking County, Ohio. A wetland is situated nearby that was sampled stratigraphically to obtain a pollen record. Numerous features including four large earth oven/hearths, three shallow basins, numerous pits and post holes were recorded. Pollen analysis examined some of these features. Macrofloral analysis examined the charred nutshell and charcoal record, producing radiocarbon dates on both types of remains to create a cultural...

Seven sites were identified during a cultural resource inventory within White Sands Missile Range (WSMR), in Otero County, New Mexico. Nine sediment samples collected from thermal features at these sites were submitted for macrofloral analysis and AMS radiocarbon dating to identify the chronology of prehistoric occupations and subsistence strategies used at each site.

Phase III mitigation excavations at sites 1CW365 and1WN204, located in Choctaw and Washington Counties, Alabama, respectively, were conducted by SEARCH, Inc., during the Lowman Pipeline Project. Sixteen soil samples (seven from 1CW365 and nine from 1WN204) were submitted for AMS radiocarbon dating. Of the sixteen, nine samples (six from 1CW365 and three from 1WN204) were also submitted for macrofloral analysis.

The Mill Creek Precontact Site (24DL0238) is located along the banks of Mill Creek in eastern Deer Lodge County, southeast of Anaconda, Montana. The samples discussed below were excavated during the 2020 field season. Mill Creek is interpreted as a series of seasonal villages occupied by multiple cultural/temporal groups. Although the earliest occupation of the site is believed to be as early as 4500 BP, the most intense occupation(s) occurred during the Late Precontact Period (after ca. 1500...

The floated light fractions from the fill of carbon stains and unknown structures at sites 41EP1026, 41EP1623, 41EP1633, and 41EP1720 were submitted identification and AMS radiocarbon dating. In addition, a projectile point fragment was examined for protein residues and organic residues, the latter using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). These sites are located on Fort Bliss Military Reservation in El Paso County, Texas, and represent small, open air camps believed to date to the...

During field excavations in February 2016, numerous stratigraphic sediment samples were collected. Three of these were selected for AMS radiocarbon analysis to include dates on both shell and organics in the form of humates (soil organic matter or SOM) or charcoal, if any could be recovered. Sufficient quantities of sediments were collected from each location to allow pollen and/or phytolith analysis, either as part of the first batch of samples examined or for examination at a later date. In...

Several stratigraphic columns were sampled in the cut bank at Rio del Oso to recover pollen and phytoliths that will provide a signal of regional and local vegetation through time. This vegetation is expected to be a reflection of both natural and cultural events. Radiocarbon ages are available for many levels, providing tight dating for the stratigraphic columns. The pollen record was examined to provide evidence of changes in both regional and local vegetation, while the phytolith record was...

A total of 50 botanical specimens from archaeological excavations at Trinidad Lake, Colorado, were identified. Six of these samples consist of corn cob fragments that were measured, while the remaining samples represent a mixture of seeds and charcoal. Macrofloral analysis was undertaken as part of a thesis project with the hope of identifying possible native and cultivated resources utilized by the site occupants and possibly to determine the past method used to recover these samples.

Pollen analysis was undertaken at 48SW1242, 4b, in connection with archaeological mitigation. This site is located at an elevation of 6450 ft in the Shute Creek Drainage Basin at the extreme western edge of Sweetwater County. Three components were recorded at the site. The later two components range in age from 1550 to 2170 B.P. Two stratigraphic columns, which combine to represent the entire period of occupation, were sampled for pollen to assess the paleoenvironment. In addition, samples...

The Harrower site (48SU867) is located along both sides of Dry Piney Creek in the Overthrust Belt of Sublette County, southwestern Wyoming. This multicomponent site exhibits cultural material dating between 13,620 B.P. and 280 B.P. Pollen samples from a stratigraphic column were collected and analyzed at 5 cm intervals and represent the paleoenvironment from approximately 12,000 B.P. to 9000 B.P., and 3300 B.P. to the present. In addition, a single sample from the moss underlying this column...

USACE, Huntington District was tasked with fulfilling a congressional-authorized restoration of the Albert Gallatin Jenkins House Site (46CB41), located in Cabell County, West Virginia. USACE, Huntington District was responsible for determining the location of the outbuildings and if they could accurately be reconstructed. Cultural Resource Analysts, Inc. (CRAI), headquartered in Lexington, Kentucky, conducted archaeological testing and data recovery excavations for the presence, integrity, and...

This collection is referred to as, "White Springs Site (22IT537) 1979-1986.” This name is consistent throughout the finding aid, the file folders, and the box labels. The extent of this collection is five (5) linear inches. The White Springs Site (22IT537) 1979-1986 archival collection was contained within acid-free boxes and in acid-free folders within the larger Shell Bluff collection. These collections are permanently housed at the Cobb Institute of Archaeology, University of Mississippi....
