Data Recovery / Excavation (Investigation Type)

These investigations include substantial field investigation of an archaeological site (or sites) involving the removal, and systematic recording of, archaeological matrix. These activities often mitigate the adverse effects of a public undertaking. This includes the description, analysis, and specialized studies of artifacts and samples recovered during excavations.

ARCHAEOBOTANIC ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM EAGLE POINT, COLORADO (2004)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. R.A. Varney. Kathryn Puseman.

Deposits within the Eagle Point Site (5RB4662), a rockshelter located along Piceance Creek in northwest Colorado, were sampled stratigraphically at close intervals for the purpose of building a detailed paleoenvironmental pollen record for this portion of Colorado. Although the sampling model called for sampling at approximately 2 cm intervals, the intervals collected varied because some levels were obviously unconsolidated and represented a single depositional, non-cultural event. In this...


ARCHAEOBOTANIC ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM EAGLE POINT, COLORADO (2005)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. Kathryn Puseman.

Archaeobotanic analyses were conducted on samples from deposits at the Eagle Point Site (5RB4662), a rockshelter/overhang located along Piceance Creek in northwest Colorado. This shelter experienced multiple occupations, with radiocarbon ages ranging from 2510 to 1010 BP. The roof/overhang has collapsed; therefore, cultural deposits are exposed and eroding away. Two stratigraphic columns were sampled at close intervals during both the 2004 and 2005 excavations for the purpose of building a...


Archaeobotanical Data and Site Reports for El Ujuxte and La Blanca, Guatemala Excavations
PROJECT Michael Love.

These are the raw data files associated with the analysis of archaeobotanical remains recovered from excavations of the Middle Formative La Blanca and Late Formative El Ujuxte, Guatemala. Aside from the raw botanical data, these files include the 1996,1997, and 2000 informes from El Ujuxte and the 2005 and 2008 informes from La Blanca.


THE ARCHAEOBOTANY OF DOMESTIC LABOR: POLLEN, PARASITE, PHYTOLlTH, AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF HISTORIC SAMPLES FROM 5LA2175, SOUTHEASTERN COLORADO (2000)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. Kathryn Puseman. Curtis Nepstad-Thornberry. Thomas E. Moutoux.

Samples from midden and privy features at two loci from 5LA2175 in southeast Colorado were examined for pollen, parasites, phytoliths, and macrofloral remains. Locus K consists of a group of 10-12 domestic structures that appear to have been occupied from approximately 1895 to 1914, prior to the Colorado Coal Field War Strike and Ludlow Massacre in 1913-1914. Locus 8 was a domestic occupation area constructed after the strike and was occupied from about 1915 to 1931. Pollen, parasite,...


AN ARCHAEOCLIMATE MODEL FOR CODY, WYOMING (2004)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. R.A. Varney.

Development of macrophysical climate models was instrumental in creating archaeoclimatic models of past climates for specific locations (Bryson 1998). Modeled mean temperature and precipitation "by month for each two centuries back to 14,000 years BP" (Bryson and Bryson n.d.:1) can be created. In addition, these parameters may be used to generate a "water budget", comparing precipitation and potential evapotranspiration, wind speed and direction, storm intensity and frequency, snowfall, and...


AN ARCHAEOCLIMATIC MODEL AND EXPLORATORY POLLEN AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM SITE 23LE327, AVENUE OF THE SAINTS, MISSOURI (2005)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. R.A. Varney. Sanjay Eksambekar.

Five combination pollen and phytolith samples were examined from depths between 97 and 149 cmbud at site 23LE327, situated on an alluvial/colluvial fan along the Mississippi River. Samples were collected from a cultural zone at the site that probably represents occupation no older than approximately 4,500 BP. This preliminary analysis was undertaken to assess whether or not pollen and phytoliths were preserved in sufficient quantity and quality to recommend full stratigraphic analysis for the...


AN ARCHAEOCLIMATIC MODEL AND POLLEN, PARASITE, PHYTOLlTH, AND PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM SITES 3CT340 AND 3CT341, NORTHEASTERN ARKANSAS (2005)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. Kathryn Puseman. Jaime Dexter.

Sites 3CT340 and 3CT341 are part of a large site complex located in eastern Arkansas' Crittenden County. The Late Woodland/Emergent Mississippian prehistoric village sites are located in the southern portion of the project area. Although neither of the sites had large lithic assemblages, several cultural features were identified, including burials at both sites and a cremation pit at site 3CT341. Thirteen pollen samples, ten of which also were examined for parasites, were examined to...


ARCHAEOCLIMATIC MODEL FOR MOAB, UTAH (2005)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings.

Specific, pertinent information can be generated through a combination of archaeoclimatic modeling and examination of close-interval stratigraphic pollen samples. Although large trends, such as increased warmth and potential evapotranspiration, can be postulated for large areas during the middle Holocene and fluctuating conditions can be postulated for the past four thousand years, paleoenvironmental information for a specific location is more appropriately available through a combination...

Archaeofauna from Vatnsfjörður, Westfjords, Iceland lab (lab report) (2008)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Albína Hulda Pálsdóttir. Marjorie Gorsline. Thomas McGovern.

The Vatnsfjörður archaeological project started in 2003. This report contains results of analysis of bones from 2003-2007. Analysis has been completed on the material from 2003 and 2004 but is only partially complete on bones from 2005-2007. This is the second preliminary report of the archaeofauna from the Vatnsfjörður excavation. Analysis is still ongoing and the results presented here are by no means final. The Vatnsfjörður material dates to two time periods, the Viking Age component and...


Archaeofaunal Remains from Pueblo Blanco (2000)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Tiffany Clark.

This chapter presents the results of an analysis of archaeofaunal remains from the 1999 and 2000 excavations at Pueblo Blanco (LA 51). Archaeological investigations by Arizona State University resulted in the recovery of a large, well-preserved faunal assemblage containing over 20,000 identified specimens from early, intermediate, and late period contexts. In this chapter, an overview of the taxonomic composition of the assemblage is first presented and diversity and proportional distributions...
