Summary

Nineteen artifacts from Site CA-ORA-83 on Bolsa Chica Mesa in southern

California were washed for pollen and possible protein residues. These artifacts

consisted of cogstones, charmstones, handstones, and possible oblong

cogstones/weights. Cogstones are often recovered from Millingstone sites along

the southern California coastal strip, although no function for these artifacts

has been determined. Pollen and protein residue analyses were used to help

provide information concerning function of these artifacts.
