PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF POTTERY SHERDS FROM SITE 24RB1606, MONTANA
Author(s): Kathryn Puseman
Year: 1994
Summary
Two small pottery sherds from Site 24RB1606 were analyzed for possible
blood proteins. In addition, a soil sample from the site surface was tested to
provide a control for the sherds. Immunological studies have shown that blood
residues from a tool's surface can be identified using modified forensic
procedures. Protein residue analysis is used to supplement prehistoric
subsistence information. Specifically, these sherds were tested to identify any
animal products that may have been stored in the vessels.
