PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS OF A GROUNDSTONE FROM LITTLE ANTELOPE VALLEY, LONG VALLEY CALDERA, MONO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings

Year: 2000

Summary

A single piece of groundstone, recovered in Little Antelope Valley in the Long Valley caldera

in Mono County, California was examined for phytoliths to obtain information about plants that

might have been ground using this tool. Phytolith analysis was selected as perhaps the most likely

to yield results because the groundstone had been washed approximately 15 years ago.

Therefore, pollen analysis was not deemed to be possible.
