This project is an attempt to finalize the compilation of a comparative collection of native California plants for archaeological (paleoethnobotanical) research. The process of finalizing this collection is now in progress by several grad students at UCSB who are collecting plants on the mainland. This collection will be used in future ethnobotanical research and housed at the University of Santa Barbara, California under Prof. VanDerwarkers care. There is no such comparative collection in place in California (or elsewhere) at this time so it will have a significant impact on California archaeological research. Once the comparative collection has been complete, I will be working on my senior honors thesis with Dr. John Johnson on an analysis of plants from one of his collection sites Santa Cruz Island.
