MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF MATERIAL FROM THE BRINK FARM SITE (A10709.000012), NEW YORK
Author(s): Kathryn Puseman; R.A. Varney
Year: 2007
Summary
The fill of a large storage pit/refuse pit at the Brink Farm site (A10709.000012) in south
central New York was examined for macrofloral remains. Two charcoal samples from this pit
also were identified to determine the best charcoal to process for AMS radiocarbon analysis.
The feature is believed to be associated with an Iroquoian habitation site located along the
Susquehanna River. Macrofloral analysis will be used to provide information concerning plant
resources utilized by the occupants of this site. In addition to the charcoal sample, a charred
maize cupule also was processed for AMS radiocarbon analysis.
