PHYTOLITH AND ORGANIC RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM THE GEE CREEK PROJECT: SITES 45CL631 AND 45CL631, CLARK COUNTY, WASHINGTON

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Chad Yost

Year: 2008

Summary

The Gee Creek project area consists of two sites, 45CL631 and 45CL632, located within

the Gee Creek drainage system, a tributary of the Columbia River, in Clark County,

Washington. Samples from the two sites were submitted for phytolith and organic residue

(FTIR) analysis. These samples are comprised of various stone tools, projectile points, firecracked

rock (FCR), and soil samples from thermal feature fill. The goal of the analysis is to

better understand the possible function of these tools and the types of plant and animal remains

that might have been processed and/or cooked using these tools and features.
