MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF HEARTH AND ROASTING PIT FILL AT SITES 48SU2264, 48SU2577, 48CR6147, 48SW11629, 48CR6891, AND 48CR6992, AND POLLEN ANALYSIS OF A MANO WASH FROM SITE 48SU2577, WYOMING

Summary

Fill from hearths and/or roasting pit features at Sites 48SU2264, 48SU2577, 48CR6147,

48CR6891, 48CR6992, and 48SW11629 in southwest and south-central Wyoming were floated to

recover charred macrofloral remains. Macrofloral analysis is used to provide information

concerning plant resources that may have been processed in these features, as well as types of

wood burned as fuel. A mano recovered from a roasting pit at Site 48SU2577 was washed to

recover pollen in order to determine plant resources that may have been ground using this tool.
