PHYTOLITH, STARCH, AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AND AMS RADIOCARBON AGE DETERMINATION OF SAMPLES FROM THE VALENTINE CACHE #3 SITE (05-01-53-377), LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Jammi L. Ladwig; Peter Kováčik
Year: 2013
Summary
The Valentine Cache #3 Site (05-01-53-377), located in southwestern Los Angeles County, California, consists of five granitic stone circular features. These features are believed to be associated with caching activities, possibly acorn harvesting. Two soil samples from the center of one of the rock ring features (Feature B, Quadrant 2) were submitted for phytolith, starch, and macrofloral analyses to identify plants associated with function, type, and method of construction for these features, as well as AMS radiocarbon age determination of the use period.
