This grant is for the purpose of conducting geo-archaeological investigations focused on identifying and analyzing ancient soil surfaces, known as paleosols, along California’s Lost Coast within the King Range National Conservation Area. The primary objective involves locating and meticulously identifying these ancient soil profiles. Subsequent steps include recording detailed soil profiles and collecting samples for comprehensive laboratory analyses. Organic materials extracted from these samples will be subjected to radiometric and chemical laboratory methods for accurate dating. This research aims to provide valuable insights into past environmental conditions and human activities in the region through the study of preserved ancient landscapes.
