POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL INTERPRETATIONS FROM A SLAB-LINED CIST IN SOUTHEASTERN UTAH

Author(s): Linda J. Scott; PaleoResearch Institute

Year: 1984

Summary

Salvage archaeological mitigation of site 42SA16011 in San Juan County,

Utah delineated a large oval, slab-lined cist/oven and accompanying shallow

ash midden area. Excavation of this cist revealed five distinct stratum,

which were sampled for pollen and/or macrofloral analysis in an effort to

define the plants that may have been prepared or cooked within this feature.

A radiocarbon date from the floor of the cist is reported as AD 140 + 80.
