1,451-1,475 (1,835 Records)
The USACE, Louisville District obtained the collection through an archaeological test excavation at the Pine Grove Site, Lake Monroe Reservoir in 1987. Limited excavations at the Pine Grove Site (12MO183) were done by GBL in contract with the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Divisions of Reservoirs. A possible Paleoindian component, continuing severe erosion, and the discovery of four pothunter holes prompted the site investigation. The fieldwork was conducted under the supervision...

POLLEN ANALYSIS AT 39WW15 (1988)
Five pollen samples were collected from four strata at the Traveis 2 Site, 39WW15. The site represents a PaleoIndian occupation, dated to approximately 9500 BP. This site is located along the left bank of Lake Oahe (Missouri River) in north central South Dakota. Pollen analysis was designed to address environmental conditions at the time of occupation, as well as to identify any change in the vegetation between the occupation and sediments deposited prior to the occupation.
POLLEN ANALYSIS AT ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES IN THE BIG HORN BASIN AND BRIDGER MOUNTAINS, WYOMING AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT SITES 48WA1453 AND 48WA1460 (1998)
Eight archaeological sites, representing Archaic and Late Prehistoric occupations in the Big Horn and Wind River Basins, were examined for pollen evidence of paleoenvironmental conditions and/or subsistence. In addition, two sites were analyzed for macrofloral remain evidence of subsistence. Comparison of the stratigraphic pollen records with geoarchaeological interpretations Increases the level of Interpretation for paleoenvironmental conditions during most of the Holocene. House floors,...
POLLEN ANALYSIS AT THE DUST DEVIL GORGE MEDICINE WHEEL SITE, 5MF 3687, NORTHWESTERN COLORADO (1999)
This Paleoindian and Early Archaic site, occupied during the Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene, contained a medicine wheel. Control pollen samples were collected and examined from four areas supporting different vegetation to establish pollen signatures for these areas that would assist in interpreting the prehistoric record. Four samples were collected beneath rocks of the medicine wheel in an effort to find pollen associated with the Paleoindian occupation and characterize the local...
POLLEN ANALYSIS AT THE KIB-RIDGE YAMPA SITE, NORTHWESTERN COLORADO (2001)
Stratigraphic pollen analysis was undertaken at the Kib Ridge-Yampa site to provide a description of local vegetation at the time of Paleo Indian occupation. Dates ranging from 11,290 ± 80 to 10,260 ± 90 BP have been returned for Contexts 15 through 4, representing human occupation. The vegetation record would be used to infer differences between the climate at that time and the present. The stratigraphic record was anticipated to represent the interval from the Paleo Indian occupation...
POLLEN ANALYSIS AT THE SECOND LOOK SITE (48SU 1565), A PALEOINDIAN SITE (1999)
The Second Look Site (48SU 1565) is an Early Paleoindian open occupation site situated on the prairie in southwestern Wyoming. The site appears to have functioned as a butchering locale. Pollen samples were collected from two depths within an excavation unit in an attempt to define local vegetation at the time of occupation.
POLLEN ANALYSIS OF CORES FROM SITE GA426, OFFSHORE NEAR GALVESTON, TEXAS (2011)
Five sediment samples from two cores collected at site GA426, located approximately 31 miles offshore near Galveston, Texas, were examined for pollen. The site is on an old river terrace that is now submerged in an estuary or back bay. The site is a possible Paleoindian site that is expected to date to between approximately 9,000 and 10,000 BP. The area was above water during the last glacial maximum and was subsequently submerged in the range of 8,400 to 10,000 BP (Patrick Hesp, personal...
POLLEN ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM THE PHALANX PHO SITE (48SU7506), SUBLETTE COUNTY, WYOMING (2016)
The Phalanx Pho Site (48SU7506) is located on a large upland bench overlooking the New Fork River in the upper Green River Basin. Site discoveries included 22 scattered features, three semi-circular-shaped feature clusters, and three large charcoal-stained sandy areas. Radiocarbon dates ranged from 5720 ± 30 to 4110 ± 30 BP. Data recovery focused on Stains 4–6, which were sampled for pollen analysis. Single samples were submitted from each stain, then two hearths within each stain were selected...
POLLEN ANALYSIS OF STRATIGRAPHIC DEPOSITS AT THE MILL IRON SITE, SOUTHEASTERN MONTANA (1985)
The Mill Iron Site (24CT30) is a Paleo Indian site located in southeastern Montana to the northwest of the Little Missouri River. Projectile points, other chipped stone artifacts, and animal bone were exposed along the slopes of the small ridge or cuesta upon which this site is located. This site lies on a south and west sloping cuesta between a higher mesa on the north and Humbolt Creek on the south. The cuesta appears to have been connected to the mesa as a ridge spur at one time, but...
POLLEN ANALYSIS OF STRATIGRAPHIC DEPOSITS AT THE MILL IRON SITE, SOUTHEASTERN MONTANA: A FEASIBILITY STUDY (1984)
The Mill Iron Site (24CT30) is a Paleo Indian site located in southeastern Montana to the northwest of the Little Missouri River. This site lies on a south and west sloping cuesta between a higher mesa on the north and Humbolt Creek on the south. The cuesta appears to have been connected to the mesa as a ridge spur at one time, but has been cut off by eastward erosions of a drainage. Projectile points, other chipped stone artifacts, and animal bone were exposed along the slopes of the...
POLLEN ANALYSIS OF THREE ARCHAIC SITES IN THE POWDER RIVER BASIN, WYOMING (1981)
Eleven pollen samples were selected for analysis from three sites (48CA468, 48CA561, and 48CA566) on the AMAX Eagle Butte Mine near Gillette in central Campbell County, Wyoming. These samples were taken stratigraphically within the sites in an effort to gather paleoenvironmental data. The sites are located on terraces above a complex of intermittent drainages at elevations ranging from 4200 to 4240 feet. Site 48CA468 appears to have Late Paleoindian and Archaic components, while...
POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSES AT BIG BEND NATIONAL PARK, TEXAS (41BS706-B) (1986)
Pollen and macrofloral analyses were undertaken at site 41BS706-B in Big Bend National Park, Texas to evaluate the prehistoric environment and gather data concerning the prehistoric economy, the cultural context of various features, and seasonality of occupation. The pollen samples were taken from a stratigraphic pollen column, as well as a feature and the soil beneath a possible metate recovered within a feature. The macrofloral samples concentrated on sampling the features and areas...
POLLEN AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS AT THE MACHAFFIE PALEOINDIAN SITE (24JF4), WEST-CENTRAL MONTANA (1990)
A single stratigraphic column through sediments at the MacHaffie Site (24JF4) yielded both pollen and phytolith samples. Pollen and phytolith analyses were conducted for each stratum to identify elements of the local vegetation for description of both local vegetation and paleoenvironmental conditions at this site through out the approximately 9,400 years represented.
POLLEN AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS OF SEDIMENT SAMPLES AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF THE FOLSOM BLOCK AT THE BLACKWATER DRAW LOCALITY AND FROST ARROYO, NEW MEXICO (2012)
The Blackwater Draw Locality on the llano estacado in northeastern New Mexico has been the focus of archaeological study intermittently over the past several decades. Analysis including both pollen and phytolith proxy records was undertaken to provide paleoenvironmental information for time periods it spanning from the Folsom occupation into post-occupational sediments. Four localities within this area were selected for the initial testing. In part, this testing was exploratory in nature to...
POLLEN AND STARCH ANALYSIS FOR THE SEARCHER SITE (02-387), BREWSTER COUNTY, TEXAS (2012)
The Searcher Site in Brewster County, Texas contains multiple archaeological sites that are being examined individually. Site 02-387 represents a Late Paleoindian occupation. A pollen and starch analysis of fill from this feature was undertaken to provide information concerning the paleoenvironment and the types of plants that might have been processed.
