Description:

Ethnographic records of yucca plants (Yucca sp.) are mostly asssociated with leaf processing to obtain fibert used for cordage. Charred spiny yucca leaf bases have been recovered from shallow thermal features at numerous sites in southern New Mexico and the norther part of Big Bend Country, Texas.
