Context
Charcoal from Concentration 4, located near one of the rockshelter. the concentration lay in a 1-m-deep basin surrounded by bedrock. 2 metate frags., biface frags., and debitage were present also. The C14 sample is from a thin charcoal lens 3 cm bmgs, 5-7 cm thick. A disarticulated alignment of rocks, 5-25 cm bmgs, was found on part of the periphery of the stain. The stain was interpreted as the remains of a hearth (Feature 5). Charred goosefoot and Indian ricegrass seeds, charred Brassicaceae, Cheno-Ams, and Chenopodium, mountain mahogany, ash, juniper and other plant remains were recovered.
