Summary

Three sites (48CR7309, 48SW16996, and 48SW17444) associated with the Overland Pass Pipeline Post Construction Data Recovery project in Carbon and Sweetwater Counties, Wyoming, yielded samples that were examined for phytoliths and starch. These sites represent occupations between approximately 6500 and 1000 Cal BP. The 79 samples examined represent primarily sediment collected from features and control locations and provide a record of taphonomic processes, dissolution, environment, and economic activity. In addition, two ground stone washes were examined from 48SW17444.
