Context
Sample is from Feature 1 hearth. [ I had to subtract 500 years from AD 1950 to calculate the date in RCYBP.] Feature 1 meas. 65 x 77 cm in dia;, 7+ cm deep. The walls and floor are bright orange from burning, and the oxidation extends into the surrounding soil to a depth of 5 cm. Only the bottom 7 cm of the feature were preserved. Upper walls destroyed by plowing. Only pollen was Pinus edulis.
