IDENTIFICATION AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF CHARCOAL FROM THE BIRTHDAY SITE, 41BS1914, TEXAS
Author(s): Kathryn Puseman
Year: 2009
Summary
Three charcoal samples from the Birthday Site (41BS1914) in west Texas were submitted
for identification and AMS radiocarbon dating. This site is a buried prehistoric campsite with
numerous stone-lined hearths eroding from arroyo walls. Charcoal was submitted from the fill of
a stone-lined hearth, from a cultural lens adjacent to a buried hearth, and from a cultural lens
noted in arroyo walls. These features are believed to represent Early to Middle Archaic
occupations. A total of three AMS radiocarbon dates were obtained.
