Summary

Six flaked cobble tools from site 45CL435, located in Clark County, Washington, were submitted for phytolith analysis. It is thought that these tools may have been used to process wood, possibly Oregon white oak (Quercus garryana). This is a preliminary investigation to see if phytolith analysis can be used to better understand the function of these tools.
