Accelerator Mass Spectrometry Dates from Mceuen Cave

Pages 341-360 | Published online: 25 Jul 2016
 

ABSTRACT

Recent accelerator mass spectrometry radiocarbon dates from McEuen Cave (AZ W:13:6 [ASM]), on the north side of the Gila River near the town of Geronimo in eastern Arizona, corroborate several conventional radiocarbon dates obtained from the site more than 35 years ago. The new dates confirm a Late Archaic—Early Agricultural period occupation at the site and provide direct dates on several interesting artifacts, including a rare, intact atlatl.
