Text Description: | Collected ~25 m above river level on the west side of a major gully that forms Site E (Reyes and others, 2011). The white tephra bed was reworked into pods up to 2.5 cm thick and 30 cm long, 15 cm above a cryoturbated peaty soil with a distinct B-horizon. The tephra was not in direct stratigraphic association with any other tephra, though OCt was found on the eastern side of the gully ~15 m above river level (Reyes and others, 2011). Glass morphology dominated by tri-cuspate and bubble-walled shards and thick-walled pumice. Glass shards are relatively blocky, and microlites were common. |
