Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings
Year: 2005
Summary
Several steatite and ceramic sherds from site 36PE16 in Pennsylvania were analyzed
for residues. Previous testing of the site indicated multiple, stratified occupations dating from
Paleoindian to Late Woodland. The steatite and ceramic sherds were washed to recover
phytoliths and/or starches that would aid in identifying foods cooked using the vessels.
