MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF ROASTING PIT FILL AT SITE 42IN2520, UTAH

Summary

Fill from a roasting pit at site 42IN2520 in southwest Utah was floated to recover charred

macrofloral remains for identification and AMS radiocarbon dating (Table 1). This site is a large,

open artifact scatter and a possible chert source area. Macrofloral analysis will be used to

provide subsistence information concerning plant resources utilized by the prehistoric occupants

of the site, as well as to identify charred material to be used for AMS radiocarbon dating.
