Various tests were performed on samples of wood collected from the Dawson Creek region of Big Bend National Park. No radiohalos were found in the charcoalified material. No C-14 was detected in a charcoalified wood sample. The silica content of the silicified wood specimens was found to be generally greater than 901b. Comments and a discussion of the test results are offered on the nodular objects found in and around a clay mound. All data were interpreted within a Diluvialist model where possible.
