MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS FOR SITES CA-LAN-653, CA-LAN-3452, AND CA-LAN-3454 ON EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
Author(s): Cynthia Adkins; Kathryn Puseman
Year: 2004
Summary
Five macrofloral samples and one wood charcoal sample were analyzed from sites Ca-Lan-653, Ca-Lan-3452, and Ca-Lan-3454 located along the southern boundary of Edwards Air
Force Base, Los Angeles County, California. These archaeological sites appear to date to the
first millennium A.D. The five macrofloral samples are associated with cultural deposits. A
single charcoal sample was recovered from a shallow basin-shaped concentration of charcoal.
Macrofloral analysis is used to identify non-woody plant materials, wood charcoal, and other
burned plant tissues.
