The Darkmold Site, 5LP4991, represents Basketmaker II and Basketmaker III occupations in the Animal River Valley north of Durango, Colorado. A suite of ten sediment samples were submitted for pollen analysis. Eight of these samples were collected from features, three of which contained burials. The remaining two samples were collected from stratigraphic contexts for the purpose of providing environmental information and controls that would assist in the interpretation of the feature samples.
