Constructing a Regional Historical Context for Terminal Pleistocene/Early Holocene Archaeology of the North-Central Mojave Desert (Legacy 07-349)
Naval Air Weapons Station (NAWS) China Lake lacks a strong historic context, making difficult the stewardship, Determinations of Eligibility for the National Register, and management of cultural resources, as required by Section 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act. This project's report is a multi-disciplinary, multi-agency study identifying current data gaps and systematizing data collection to facilitate developing and tailoring future research designs for early site management.

Geological and Archaeological Investigations of Airport Wash in the Southern Tucson Basin (1985)
As part of the Santa Cruz Industrial Park Project, the City of Tucson planned to bridge and stabilize the banks of a large, deeply entrenched wash that flows into the Santa Cruz River approximately one-quarter mile south of Irvington Road on the right bank of the river. Airport Wash, as it is called, has cut deeply into the ancient sediments filling the valley at this point, exposing a long record of late Pleistocene and Holocene alluvium. Earlier examinations by archaeologists in the mid- to...
IDENTIFICATION OF CHARCOAL FROM SANTA ROSA ISLAND, CALIFORNIA (2011)
Five samples from geologic “fire areas” on Santa Rosa Island, California, were submitted for identification. These “fire areas” represent distinct burn features located about 10-15 meters apart from one another and date to the Early Holocene or Terminal Pleistocene. Charcoal samples were identified to determine the types of trees burned at the site.

POLLEN ANALYSIS FOR A SEDIMENT SAMPLE FROM THE PRUITT SHELTER NO.1, 3NW1308, NEWTON COUNTY, ARKANSAS (2018)
Pruitt Shelter No. 1 (3NW1308) is situated along a steep bluff face of the Buffalo River, Newton County, Arkansas. Site 3NW1308 is estimated to have been occupied during the Late Pleistocene or Early Holocene, as well as during the Early Archaic through the Late Mississippian, the latter represented by lithics recovered from the site. A midden that appears to have been deposited between approximately AD 600 and 1600 was sampled for pollen analysis.
