PHYTOLITH AND ORGANIC RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF SEDIMENT FROM THE STAJNIA CAVE, POLAND

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings

Year: 2012

Summary

A single sediment sample was collected from a layer or context best described as containing organic matter found under a rock in Stajnia Cave. Phytolith analysis was conducted on this sample to identify any evidence that might contribute to understanding the context of this sample. Organic residue analysis using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry (FTIR) also was conducted to better understand organic residues that might still be contained within the sediments.
