1,251-1,275 (2,999 Records)
Palynological study of 18 samples, including 5 associated with Archaic Period radiocarbon dates and 1 associated with Fremont Culture artifacts, identifies a pollen sequence for the site. The inferred paleoclimatic sequence fully agrees with dated sequences from central New Mexico and the Llano Estacado (NM-TX).
Palynological Research Related to the Oaxaca Project (1971)
Summaries of field and laboratory work undertaken 1967-70. Supplemental report by S. Kitchen (Fish) on study of surface samples is incomplete.
Palynological Study of Sediment Samples from La Planta, Puerto Rico (1988)
Pilot study suggests Puerto Rican archaeological-context sediment samples contain pollen but further research will be needed to develop a cost-effective extraction technique, and many samples may not have adequate pollen concentrations to justify paleoenvironmental interpretation.
Palynological Study of the Slusher Estate (1981)
Draft of the paper published in Frierman, J.D., (1982), "The Ontiveros Adobe: Early Rancho Life in Alta California." Roberta Greenwood Associates, Pacific Palisades. Includes tables of pollen observations.
Palynological Test of AZ U:16:6 (ASU) (1980)
Pilot study of 6 samples from an Archaic Period site to establish pollen concentration values, preservation problems, variety and frequency of taxa, necessity of unusual laboratory investment, and implications for further research.
PALYNOLOGICAL TESTING AT FOUR SITES IN SWEETWATER AND FREMONT COUNTIES, WYOMING: A FEASIBILITY STUDY (1986)
Thirteen pollen samples associated with features from four archaeological sites were analyzed for pollen in association with archaeological testing along the Amoco Pipeline. The sites are located in Sweetwater and Fremont Counties in southwestern Wyoming, at elevations varying from 6785 to 7500 feet, in a semi-arid environment. The features were tested for their pollen content in an effort to determine whether or not there was evidence at these sites of plant processing.
PALYNOLOGICAL, PHYTOLITH, AND MACROFLORAL INVESTIGATIONS (1986)
Very little evidence to reconstruct the paleoenvironment exists for this area of Wyoming. The paleoenvironment may be addressed through several different data bases, including the pollen and phytolith records, which are discussed here. A limited amount of stratigraphic pollen analysis has been completed in this area, from which the paleoenvironment may be interpreted, although no stratigraphic phytolith analysis has been undertaken for this area. Archaeological sites 48FR1468 and 48FR1602,...
Palynology and Landuse Reconstruction at Tatton Park, Cheshire (1999)
Sediment samples associated with a Mesolithic site on the shore of Tatton Mere contain pollen "downwashed" through the deposits since establishment of a soil on an aeolian dune that developed at the locale in Romano-British times. Application of the method suggested in Schoenwetter, 1990, "Method for the Application of Pollen Analysis in Landscape Archaeology," allows interpretation of the pollen sequence in terms of changes in local landuse. The result is wholly consistant with the sequence of...
Palynology of the Koster Site: First Report (1971)
Results of pilot pollen study suggests further research would be relevant to on-going and planned archaeological study at this site. Also see unpublished report of subsequent palynological research 1974.
Parasitological and Macrobotanical Analyses of a Late-18th Century Privy, Portsmouth, New Hampshire (2011)
Five soil samples from a late eighteenth-century privy at the Wentworth site in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, were submitted to the Fiske Center for parasitological and macrobotanical analysis in order to illuminate the diet, health, and sanitation practices of the site's occupants. Over 2000 macrobotanical remains were recovered from these five samples, as well as 516 parasite ova which were interpreted as evidence of both roundworm (Ascaris sp.) and whipworm (Trichuris sp.) infestation....

Passive Accumulations: Archaeological Investigations in Support of Reconstruction and Extension of Runway 12L-30R at Williams Gateway Airport, Mesa, Arizona (2000)
Kimley-Hom and Associates are under contract with the Williams Gateway Airport Authority (WGAA) to provide services for design of the reconstruction and extension of Runway 12L-30R. A number of archaeological sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) extend within the construction zone. Therefore, WGAA was required to take into account the potential for its undertakings to affect those archaeological sites under the terms of its lease agreement with the Air...
Patterns of Maya Jade Disposal at Blue Creek, Belize (2004)
Jade was the most valued material in the Classic Maya world. Large numbers of jade artifacts have been recovered from diverse contexts from the Maya site of Blue Creek, Belize. This database allows for analysis of the distribution and disposal of jade artifacts. Further, jade’s role in Classic Maya political economies is unclear, with views alternating between jade having functioned as a currency and jade having been controlled by royal elites. The Blue Creek database is used to test the...
Patterns of Prehistoric Settlement in the El Morro Valley, New Mexico (1973)
The design of ·the research hypotheses sampling, data collection and analyses, has made it possible to extrapolate for the region in general the transformations of the natural into the cultural landscape. The analysis of the pattern of settlement when evaluated in terms of the distribution of natural resources exposes many innuendos of prehistoric land use. While the utilization of resources is not totally dependent on demographic variables,(i.e., religious, social etc., norms can also program...
Pedestrian Survey of 4,250 Acres at Camp Bullis Military Installation, Bexar County, Texas (2006)
The Camp Bullis Cultural Resource Office conducted archaeological investigations at the Camp Bullis military installation from December 2003 to April 2006. The investigation consisted of a pedestrian survey of 4,250 acres (1,714 hectares) in the impact area (Maneuver Area 9), assessments of previously-recorded sites in Training Areas 2D, 3B, 4C, 8B, 9 and 10, and National Register test excavations of 11 prehistoric sites. The survey of the impact area resulted in the documentation of 21...
