Context
Charcoal from Feature 144, a steep-sided basin-shaped hearth in excavation area X31. Meas. ca. 65 cm in dia at the eroded surface. Unlined, relatively large quantity of charcoal plus a small number of burned SS frags. and quartzites. A partial lens of burned earth along its base. NOTE: a date of 5964 +/- 90 is given in text. This date is the author's conversion from the Libby half life to the Cambridge half life. The reader should use the Libby half life, as I have, for the sake of consistency within the database.
