Three soil samples from two possible hearths and one cobble-filled hearth discovered during recent excavations at prehistoric site 5EP211 in Colorado Springs, Colorado, were floated to recover macrofloral remains. In addition, two fragments of charred wood posts were submitted for identification. Site 5EP211 is a small open camp located along Interstate 25 (I-25) that might be the remnant of a much larger site that has subsequently been destroyed. Radiocarbon dates obtained from charcoal,...

CA-SHA-1991 (the Tanya Site) is located along Olney Creek in the Sacramento Valley of Shasta County, California. The local environment is primarily oak woodland interspersed with areas of manzanita chaparral. This site is believed to be a late prehistoric period occupation associated with the Wintu tribe. One liter of sediment was collected in 1996 and is associated with the floor of a large, circular dance or assembly house. This sample was sent to PaleoResearch Institute for flotation and...

The floated light fractions from five samples at Site CA-SDI-13078 (Rhodes Crossing Project) were analyzed for macrofloral remains. This site is located in San Diego, California, and radiocarbon dates reflect Late Archaic and Late Prehistoric occupations. Samples were recovered from columns in two control units, one of which contained a small hearth. Macrofloral analysis is used to determine plant resources processed at the site, as well as wood burned as fuel.

The Carlsbad Field Office contracted Versar, Inc. to conduct remedial archaeological data recovery excavations at the Merchant site (LA 43414), a complex village settlement in southeastern New Mexico. The Merchant site was excavated by the Lea County Archaeological Society (LCAS) from 1959 to 1965, but the results of the excavations were never fully reported. The site was fundamental to the definition of the Ochoa phase, but the nature of the phase had remained poorly known since the excavations...

Salvage excavations of a Late Prehistoric burial found in a small overhang of a sandstone outcrop in southeastern Wyoming produced remains of an older-aged female Native American Indian of unknown biological affinities. Previous excavations by collectors recovered 86 tubular bone beads, eight corner-notched projectile points and one fresh water bivalve shell pendant. The Late Prehistoric age is suggested by the projectile points found in association with the human remains and their similarity to...

This artifact, probably a hafted knife, was discovered at the Hell Gap site on November 2, 1994, by George Zeimens while on a field trip with a group of third and fourth grade students from Lingle Elementary School. The tool was found on a talus pile in front of an animal burrow. The burrow had been dug into the perpendicular stream bank approximately 25 m southwest of the western edge of the Harvard Area I excavations, and about 0.95 m below the present ground surface. It is presumed that the...

We used X-Ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy to identify nine obsidian sources used by the prehistoric inhabitants of Jackson Hole, Wyoming. This paper examines this prehistoric use of obsidian and obsidian sources. Variation in utilization patterns is suggested through study of temporally diagnostic obsidian artifacts. The diachronic pattern of sources used allows consideration of the influences in acquisition, distribution, and use of obsidian.

The Jayroe Site (41HM51) is a late Prehistoric small campsite situated in Hamilton County, Texas. The site lies at the northeast margins of the Balconian biotic province, near its boundary with the Texan and Kansan biotic provinces, on the edge of a terrace overlooking the Leon River. The site features two hearths/pits, two bone concentrations, and two mixed burned rock and artifact concentrations with extensive lithic and faunal assemblage, and sherds from ceramic vessels. Fourteen Late...

In the Wind River and southern portion of the Big Horn Basins there are ancient Native American drawings of super-humanoids, animals, and geometric figures. Exactitude in understanding or deciphering these ancient religious/artistic endeavors is not available, however, a general understanding and expanded appreciation can be obtained. And, hopefully with that understanding, a desire to see they are protected from both intentional and unintentional vandalism.

A recent discovery of Archaic period pecked petroglyphs at the Gateway site (48LN348) is the first occurrence of Uncompahgre style imagery in the northern Green River Basin. Badly impacted by superimposed Late Prehistoric period incised petroglyphs, the Uncompahgre style images are a panel of abstract lines and circular forms whose overall form is similar to other Uncompahgre style petroglyphs at a site further south along the Green River. We document these newly discovered Gateway site...
