976-1,000 (2,999 Records)
Red Canyon Ranch, located in the foothills of the Owl Creek Mountains southwest of Thermopolis, Wyoming, contains evidence for multiple human occupations from Paleoindian to Historic times. Archaeological investigations and subsequent archaeobotanical analyses and radiocarbon age determinations span a period of several years and are currently ongoing. To facilitate these analyses, a single site designation of 48HO375 has been assigned. The earliest investigation centered on two hearths: one...
MACROFLORAL AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF HEARTH FILL; POLLEN, PHYTOLITH, AND ORGANIC RESIDUE (FTIR) ANALYSIS OF A GROUNDSTONE; AND PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF A BIFACE FROM SITE LA 123811 (FB 8612) ON THE FORT BLISS MILITARY INSTALLATION, NEW MEXICO (2009)
Fill from a hearth at site LA 123811 (FB 8612) on the Fort Bliss Military Installation in Otero County, New Mexico, was floated to recover charred macrofloral remains, then obtain a radiocarbon date on identified charcoal. A groundstone recovered from the hearth fill was examined for pollen, phytoliths, and organic residues, the latter using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Ethnobotanic analyses of the hearth fill and the groundstone wash will be used to provide subsistence...
MACROFLORAL AND POLLEN ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM THE PINNACLES SITE, 39PN9, IN THE NORTH UNIT OF THE SOUTH DAKOTA BADLANDS NATIONAL PARK (2001)
The fill from three hearth samples at the Pinnacles site (39PN9) in the South Dakota Badlands National Park were processed for both pollen and macrofloral analyses. The floated light fractions from two additional hearth samples and two cultural levels exposed in vertical profiles also were examined for macrofloral remains. Samples were obtained from two different areas of the site that represent two different occupations. Area 932 yielded a corrected date of 379 B.C. and represents a Late...

MACROFLORAL INVENTORY FOR A SINGLE HISTORIC SAMPLE FROM SITE CA-ORA-322/1118 (2003)
Four macrofloral samples were submitted for analysis from CA-ORA-3221/1118. Upon receipt of a prehistoric date for shells from the shell midden and a recent historic date for charred seeds, this project was canceled. Information presented below represents analysis completed prior to cancellation. All four macrofloral samples submitted were floated and one sample had been sorted and inventoried prior to cancellation of this project.
Macrofloral, Phytolith, and Starch Analysis, and AMS Radiocarbon Dating for the Permian Basin MOA, New Mexico (2013)
The goal of the Permian Basin MOA Task Order 10 was to analyze 500 AMS radiocarbon samples collected from feature context by the Carlsbad Field Office Cultural Resource Staff (including recovering and identifying charcoal and/or burned annual remains from each of the samples prior to selecting the best item to date), as well as analyzing 500 duplicate samples collected at the same locations for environmental and subsistence related evidence using starch, phytolith, and macrobotanical analyses....
MACROFLORAL, PHYTOLITH, POLLEN, STARCH, AND ORGANIC RESIDUE (FTIR), ANALYSES OF STRUCTURAL MATERIAL AND RESIDUE FROM A COATED INFANT BUNDLE BURIAL BASKET, VAL VERDE COUNTY, TEXAS (2010)
Fiber and rib material from a coated basket recovered in a rockshelter site in Val Verde County, Texas, was submitted for identification to determine the construction material for the basket. Black residue removed from the inside surface of the basket was examined for pollen, phytoliths, and organic residues (using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) to obtain a better understanding of the residue. The basket was found covering an infant burial that had been wrapped in two layers of...
MACROFLORAL, POLLEN AND PARASITE ANALYSIS, AND WOOD IDENTIFICATION OF PRIVY SAMPLES FROM SITE 13DB899, DUBUQUE COUNTY, IOWA (2016)
Site 13DB889 is situated within a historic, urban neighborhood along Rhomberg and Kniest Streets in the City of Dubuque, Iowa. The nineteenth to twenty-first century homes were occupied predominantly by working-class, German Catholic residents (Leah D. Rogers, personal communication August 10, 2016). Several privies, possibly used into the 1910s, were sampled for pollen, parasite, and macrofloral analyses. Pollen and macrofloral analyses of privy fill provide information concerning foods eaten...
MACROFLORAL, POLLEN, AND ORGANIC RESIDUE (FTIR) ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM SITE 42WS5162, WASHINGTON COUNTY, UTAH (2017)
Site 42WS5162 is located in Washington County, Utah, near St. George, at elevations ranging from 800 to 1100 meters above sea level. The site falls predominantly within the Mojave Basin and Range Level III ecoregion (Patricia Stavish, personal communication October 17, 2017). Ten samples from various features were submitted for macrofloral, pollen, and/or FTIR analysis.
MACROFLORAL, POLLEN, AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM THE ESPINOSA ADOBE, CA-MNT-1429H, CALIFORNIA (2001)
Six sediment samples and two adobe brick samples from the Espinosa Adobe, Site CA-MNT-1429H, were floated to recover macrofloral remains. One of the adobe brick samples also was examined for pollen and phytoliths. This site contained an adobe dwelling constructed in 1823 by Salvador Maria Espinosa. The adobe building survived through 1930, but was in ruins by 1954. Macrofloral analysis will be used to provide information to help determine the local plant population at the time of the adobe...
MACROFLORAL, POLLEN, PHYTOLITH, STARCH, AND PARASITE ANALYSIS OF THREE NINETEENTH CENTURY PRIVIES LOCATED AT SANTA CLARA UNIVERSITY; SANTA CLARA, CALIFORNIA (2007)
Twenty-seven samples from three privies (Features 6, 14 and 62) discovered at Santa Clara University in Santa Clara, California, were submitted for archaeobotanic analyses. These three privies are associated with a German immigrant community that dated to the latter half of the nineteenth century. Each of the samples was analyzed for macrofloral remains, pollen, starch, and the presence or absence of parasites. One sample from each privy was also examined for phytoliths. The macrofloral,...
MACROFLORAL, POLLEN, PHYTOLlTH, AND PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF MATERIAL FROM FRANKTOWN CAVE, SITE 5DA272, COLORADO (2006)
Franktown Cave is a large rockshelter in Douglas County, Colorado, that experienced multiple occupations from at least the Middle Archaic through the Protohistoric periods. A large amount of material has been collected in the cave from five separate excavations dating to the 1940s, 1950s, and 1976 including chipped stone artifacts; ground stone; potsherds; perishable artifacts such as fiber, hide, bone, and wood; and ecofacts such as com, other plant remains, animal bone, shell, and wood. A...
MACROFLORAL, POLLEN, STARCH, AND PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM THE MALIN CREEK FISHING HOLE SITE, 24YE353, YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, WYOMING (2004)
Six soil samples from four fire-cracked rock features at the Malin Creek Fishing Hole Site, 24YE353, in Yellowstone National Park, Montana, were floated to recover macrofloral remains. One metate was washed to recover pollen, starches, and possible protein residues that would aid in identifying plants processed using the metate. Lithic artifacts and radiocarbon dates reflect Late Paleoindian, McKean (3500-1000 B.C.), Pelican Lake (1000 B.C. to A.D. 400), and Avonlea (A.D. 250-1000)...
MACROFLORAL, PROTEIN RESIDUE (CIEP), AND ELEMENTAL COMPOSITION (XRF) ANALYSIS AND AMS RADIOCARBON AGE DETERMINATION OF SAMPLES FROM SITE 5LA12616 (OWENS CACHE), LAS ANIMAS COUNTY, COLORADO (2018)
Site 5LA12616 (Owens Cache) is located within the Pinyon Canyon Maneuver Site in southeastern Colorado. The cache encountered under the bedrock niche consisted of three chipped stone tools and sparse micro-debitage. Stone tools were submitted for protein analysis (CIEP). Macrofloral and radiocarbon analysis were requested for two sediment samples collected in the vicinity of intact artifacts to recover and identify charred remains, including charcoal, that would be suitable for radiocarbon...

Makapansgat and Buffalo Cave Palynology: A Brief Assessment of Studies During Spring, 1999 (1999)
Research initiated at the inception of the Spring 1999 semester by Mrs. Loren A.LeForce under my supervision, focused on recovery of pollen from samples collected at “the limeworks” fossil locality at Makapansgat and the Buffalo Cave locality, South Africa. The objective was assessment of the samples’ potential to provide sufficient pollen for meaningful analysis of paleoecosystem conditions, and identification of palynological contrasts amongst samples from the same locality and between...
