DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman.

Three soil samples for macrofloral analysis and a wood sample for identification were examined from Sites Ca-Sha-726/H and Ca-Sha-2983. These sites are located near Lake Britton and the Pit River in Shasta County, northern California, which is within the ethnographic territory of the Ilmawi Band of Pit River Indians. Macrofloral analysis is used to provide subsistence information concerning plant resources utilized by the prehistoric occupants of these sites.
