A granite pestle and an associated soil control sample recovered from Feature 2, an exposed, low-lying granite bedrock milling station at Site CA-TUO-4818 in Yosemite National Park, California, were submitted for protein and organic residue analysis. The pestle was tested for organic residues using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and for protein residue using cross-over immunoelectrophoresis (CIEP).

Bedrock milling outcrops that are part of three archaeological sites (CA-RIV-8750, 8751, and 8752) were sampled for protein residue analysis. Four slicks and two control locations were sampled CA-RIV-8750 (Table 1). Two slicks were sampled at each CA-RIV-8751 and CA-RIV-8752 as well as control locations.

Washes from three bedrock milling features (mortars) and a surface control sample were submitted for protein residue analysis from the BTC Milling Site, P-33-11224, located in Riverside County, California, near the community of French Valley. The goal of the analysis is to identify any plant, animal, and insect protein residues that may be present on the use surfaces of three non-portable bedrock milling features.
