MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT ROCKSHELTER SITE 42IN1342, UTAH

Summary

Three soil samples from intact cultural deposits at rockshelter site 42IN1342 in the Camp

Creek drainage of Zion National Park, Utah, were floated to recover macrofloral remains. The

prehistoric deposits within the rockshelter have been severely disturbed by looting; however,

intact prehistoric cultural deposits were noted beneath the looters back dirt pile and in an

undisturbed cutbank just outside the rockshelter. Lithic artifacts recovered from the site suggest

a Parowan Fremont occupation. Macrofloral analysis will be used to provide information

concerning plant resources utilized by the occupants of the site.
