Book 2.indb - Pacific Coast Archaeological Society

Forward
Scott Findlay, 2008 PCAS President
The Pacific Coast Archaeological Society (PCAS) thanks Daniel McCarthy for compiling this index to forty
volumes of the PCAS Quarterly and to three PCAS Occasional Papers. This complete index will assist researchers
and scholars with its cross references and keywords which quite easily lead the reader to the whereabouts
of desired anthropological and archaeological information. This index supports PCAS’s goal of disseminating
quality information to avocational and professional archaeologists, anthropologists, historians, and the general
public. Thanks again, Daniel.
Dedication and Acknowledgments
Daniel F. McCarthy
This index is dedicated to the pioneers of one of the oldest surviving avocational archaeological societies in California.
Their names appear on the next few pages. They served as PCAS presidents, vice presidents, and in other
elected and non-elected positions. These pioneers include the PCAS members who worked diligently not only on
recording sites, conducting excavations, and working with professionals but who also ensured that reports were
written and published so as to reach a wider audience, the general public.
In completing the research for this issue, several people were key to providing issues I did not already possess. I
would like to thank Sandy Schneeberger, Chris and Beth Padon, and Bob and Rene Brace for making past issues
available. Rene has been most helpful in the final layout process and getting the results to the printer. I thank
those anonymous reviewers who took the time looking for errors that inevitably cropped up during the compiling
of this work.
