MICROSCOPIC ANALYSIS OF RESIDUE FROM A CERAMIC VESSEL, PIKES PEAK, COLORADO (2002)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings.

A ceramic vessel, recovered on the west side of Pikes Peak, Colorado exhibited charred residue on the interior. This residue was scraped off for microscopic analysis. In addition, a wash of the interior surface of the vessel under the residue was collected also for microscopic analysis. Microscopic analysis included a search for any pollen, phytoliths, or starches visible in the samples to provide evidence of foods that might have been cooked in the vessel.
