Six phytolith samples were submitted from stratigraphic deposits at 3SC1777, a site located on a rocky upland slope overlooking the Fourche La Fave River floodplain. This Middle and Late Archaic site yielded projectile points providing date ranges from approximately 6,000- 4,000 years ago. Oxidizable carbon ratio (OCR) dates indicate occupation between 6,050 BP and 3,100 BP.

Three sites in the Quail Ranch Data Recovery Project were selected for phytolith analysis. A total of twelve phytolith samples were examined from hearths, roasting pits, and middens to assess local vegetation and plants that might have been cooked or roasted. These sites range in age from Middle to Late Archaic.

Located in Buck County, Pennsylvania, the Split Site (36BU0449) is situated in a diabase boulder field, perched above extensive wetlands draining into Ridge Valley Creek. The site is divided into eastern and western halves by the Pennsylvania Turnpike Northeast Extension, which destroyed portions of the archaeological site during construction in the 1950s (Joel Dworsky, personal communication, November 5, 2019). The eastern half (Split Site East) produced a high volume of archaeological...

Site 21-85 is located within the Western New England Marble Valley subzone with the Vermont Valley extending north towards Massachusetts. The site is situated in Canaan, County Lichfield, Connecticut on the edge of Robbins Swamp. Robbins Swamp was important to Native Americans during the pre-contact period as an ecological and cultural resource. Four soil control samples for 16 lithics from a various depths and units were submitted for protein analysis. Additionally, three ceramic samples were...

The USACE, Louisville District obtained the collection through an archaeological test excavation at the Pine Grove Site, Lake Monroe Reservoir in 1987. Limited excavations at the Pine Grove Site (12MO183) were done by GBL in contract with the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Divisions of Reservoirs. A possible Paleoindian component, continuing severe erosion, and the discovery of four pothunter holes prompted the site investigation. The fieldwork was conducted under the supervision...

Observations on Madison point bases from Eaton. Shape (1 = straight, 2 = incurvate, 3 = excurvate, 4 = indeterminate). Width (mm). Ears (none = 0, 1 = yes [1 or 2]). Unifacial (0 = bifacial, 1 = largely unifacial). Symmetry (0 = symmetrical base, 1 = asymmetrical base [not broken], 2 = 1 broken corner, 3 = both corners broken, 4 = can't be determined). Use Wear ( none = 0, yes = 1, [may include grinding]). Basal grinding is listed in comments if use wear not clearly present.

This table tabulates point mid-sections by unit. Point mid-sections that fit with point bases or tips are tabulated here and again in the "Point Refit Table." These mid-sections are believed to be from Madison Points. See also "Distribution of Projectile Points and Projectile Point Fragments."

Fourteen pollen samples were examined from a stratigraphic column, two features, a prehistoric surface, and a mano at the Hanging Hearth site (5RB 454) in northwestern Colorado. Hanging Hearth, a stratified site located in Rio Blanco County, exhibits evidence of at least five occupations. The stratigraphic pollen record was examined to address changes in local and regional vegetation through time. Pollen analysis of features and other samples with cultural associations was undertaken to...

Pruitt Shelter No. 1 (3NW1308) is situated along a steep bluff face of the Buffalo River, Newton County, Arkansas. Site 3NW1308 is estimated to have been occupied during the Late Pleistocene or Early Holocene, as well as during the Early Archaic through the Late Mississippian, the latter represented by lithics recovered from the site. A midden that appears to have been deposited between approximately AD 600 and 1600 was sampled for pollen analysis.

Thirteen stratigraphic samples were submitted for pollen analysis from site 36WO80, Deer Park, Pennsylvania. The site is located along Tunkhannock Creek in Wyoming County. The stratigraphic record, including some flood episodes, represents an period of sediment accumulation during the Mid-to-Late-Archaic, based on recovery of projectile points.

Site 48CR10089, the Hugus Cliffs Site, is located in the northwestern portion of the Kindt Basin. Situated on an alluvial fan at the base of Hugus Cliff and along the western margin of an unnamed tributary of Little Sage Creek, this site represents a Middle to Late Archaic open camp. Twelve features are situated within an extensive stain. Radiocarbon dates obtained from seven hearths place occupation generally between 4260 ± 30 and 4030 ± 30 BP, with a single intrusive hearth dating 1520 ± 30...

Site 48CR9097represents an Early to Late Archaic occupation containing five features and divided into a Prehistoric Camp and Faunal Block. Radiocarbon dates obtained for Feature 1, noted at a depth of 26–34 cmbgs, and Feature 3, recovered at a depth of 53–93 cmbgs are reported as 1800 ± 30 and 5300 ± 30 BP, respectively. Three pollen samples were examined from the Prehistoric Camp block, and two pollen samples were examined from the Faunal Block.
