Putting Archaeobotany Under the Microscope: A Case Study for Increased Use of Starch-Grain Residue Analysis on the North Coast of Peru (2015)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Guy Duke. Victor Vásquez-Sanchez. Teresa Rosales-Tham.

Due to the arid environment and subsequent excellent preservation on the north coast of Peru, evidence obtained from macrobotanical remains here has been the primary sources of information on plant use. However, despite the richness of the macrobotanical record, the combination of arid conditions and the nature of many plants, such as potatoes and beans – which are consumed in their entirety – macrobotanical remains can only tell us so much. In this paper, we discuss some methodological issues...

Quarai Pueblo Ceramic data with Period information (2014)
DATASET Katherine Spielmann.

This dataset contains counts and weights for plain, white, and glaze ware ceramics from Quarai Pueblo, New Mexico. The last column also provides period designations. Early is the early 1300s; Middle is probably the late 1400s-mid-1500s but we have no direct radiocarbon dates, and late is largely colonial. Quarai was abandoned between the early and late periods--there is little middle period occupation that we found.
