Summary

Site 41AT232 is located near Metate Creek in Atascosa County, Texas. A large midden

was sampled to recover pollen that would reflect plants that were discarded at this prehistoric

open camp. In addition, a single burned clay object was recovered and examined for organic

residues using the FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer) to identify foods that might

have been cooked in proximity to this burned clay object.
