EXPLORATORY POLLEN AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS FOR THE TALEGA SITE (CA-ORA-907), SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; R.A. Varney

Year: 2006

Summary

Thirteen pollen and eight phytolith samples collected stratigraphically from sediments at

CA-ORA-907 were examined to provide information necessary to reconstruct the past

vegetation at the Talega site. The stratigraphic sediments reach a depth of. at least 61 feet,

where a radiocarbon age of 14,980 ± 70 BP was obtained. Most of the sediments examined

accumulated between approximately 15,000 BP and 8,000 BP and are anchored by one or

more radiocarbon ages.
