CHARCOAL IDENTIFICATION AND AMS RADIOCARBON AGE DETERMINATION OF CHARRED REMAINS FROM CAMP FULLER, SITE RI-1449, WASHINGTON COUNTY, RHODE ISLAND

Author(s): Peter Kováčik

Year: 2015

Summary

The Camp Fuller site (RI-1449) is located on a small peninsula on the western shores of Point Judith Pond in Washington County, Rhode Island. Feature 1 lacked diagnostic artifacts. Sites in the vicinity of RI-1449 and in the broader Salt Ponds Region suggest occupation during the Late Archaic and through the Late Woodland Periods (Jennifer Ort, personal communication September 17, 2015) (Sportman 2014:3). Charred botanical remains were submitted for identification and AMS radiocarbon age determination to ascertain period of occupation.
