Description

Level bag from Mud Bay. Due to a research project (Royalty Research Fund, PI: J. Stein, 1999), some level bags from this site were assigned catalog numbers prior to receipt of the field bag inventories. The field notes had apparently been borrowed by former curator Dr. Robert Greengo, and were not returned to the Burke until 2002. In 2009-10, the level bags were re-cataloged and assigned their original field bag number. However, the C-14 samples removed from the erroneously-cataloged levels bags that were analyzed for the research project maintain their incorrect level bag reference due to the documentation and publications that resulted from this research.
