CHARCOAL IDENTIFICATION AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF SAMPLES FROM THE PAIRED-FEATURES SITE (41PC735), TEXAS

Author(s): Kathryn Puseman

Year: 2011

Summary

Charcoal samples were recovered from the fill from two features at the Paired-Features Site, 41PS735, in west Texas. These charcoal samples were submitted for identification and AMS radiocarbon dating. The site consists of a multi-component open campsite containing a large ring midden, roasting facilities, a possible tipi ring, and scatters of prehistoric and historic artifacts. Recovery of a single corner-notched dart point suggests a Late Archaic component. Charcoal identification determined the types of wood burned as fuel in the features, while radiocarbon dating provided temporal information.
