POLLEN, PHYTOLITH, AND ORGANIC RESIDUE (FTIR) ANALYSIS OF CERAMIC SHERDS AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF MAMMAL BONE FROM THE LOWER FORT GARY NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE, MANITOBA, CANADA

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Chad Yost; Melissa K. Logan

Year: 2009

Summary

Ceramic sherds from a single vessel were submitted for pollen, phytolith and organic residue analysis, along with mammal bone fragments for AMS radiocarbon dating. The ceramic sherds were tested for organic reside using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) to determine materials the vessel contained.
