What you're looking at is non-carbonized Western Red Cedar (aka Thuja plicata) wood. This sample comes from a fishing weir feature found in the Pacific Northwest and estimated to date to A.D. 1020-1220. Western Red Cedar was the most common type of wood identified during this project, which aims to promote a better habitat for fish by reconstructing the tidal channels that once existed in the area. Many thanks to Staff Archaeologist Shambri Murphy for sharing this image with us and Senior Archaeologist Elliot Helmer for providing additional context! #fishingweir #fishweir #archaeology #culturalresources #culturalresourcemanagement

Have you ever seen a stake from a fishing weir up close? This was uncovered during construction monitoring from within Oregon’s anaerobic clay-filled soil, which preserves materials that otherwise would have deteriorated long ago. #fishingweir #fishweir #archaeology #culturalresources #culturalresourcemanagement

Information on how people lived long ago is often buried in layers of nondescript dirt, only to be discovered during construction monitoring. During monitoring for a habitat restoration project in the Pacific Northwest reexcavating a relict tidal channel, our Oregon field crew captured this moment when Senior Archaeologist Elliot Helmer identified a piece of preserved wood for collection and analysis. #fishingweir #fishweir #archaeology #culturalresources #culturalresourcemanagement

What are the signs you might be talking to an archaeologist? If an artifact, a grin, or both come out when they explain a project, there’s no mistake. Case in point: this shot of our Senior Archaeologist Elliot Helmer discussing fishing weirs excavated during a project in Oregon, shared by our Strategic Account Executive Chris Sims. More to come! #fishingweir #fishweir #archaeology #culturalresources #culturalresourcemanagement
