POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT 42SA14187: AN ANASAZI BURIAL IN SOUTHEASTERN UTAH
Author(s): Linda J. Scott; PaleoResearch Institute
Year: 1983
Summary
A burial eroding out of an arroyo sidewall in West Water Canyon has
been the subject of archaeological investigation. The burial (42SA14l87)
was located in a burial pit within the fill of a large circular
pit structure. During the course of archaeological investigations, four
pollen and two flotation samples have been analyzed in an effort to gain
information concerning the interment. The burial pit contained several
artifacts, including two vessels and several polishing stones. Pollen and
macrofloral analyses were employed to ascertain whether any vegetal material
had been buried with the body.
