Cultural resource management strategies under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) provide mechanisms that allow for the preservation and mitigation of prehistoric sites. Many San Francisco Bay Area sites have provided greater guidance, experience, insight, knowledge, and above all unending patience and encouragement. All three's expertise in different areas of anthropology and environmental studies allowed for this project to be well rounded and inclusive. I can never thank them enough for all their assistance. Additionally, Dr. Lorna Pierce of San Jose State University lent her time to review radiographs and help teach me how to read and interpret the fractures that were the focus of this project. Dr. Pierce also encouraged me and provided helpful suggestions on the direction of this project, thank you.
