Two groundstone and one replicate hearth or roasting pit fill sample were submitted as a blind test for starch analysis. The groundstone were used to crush or grind botanics collected in southwestern Wyoming and identified by Abbie Harrison, macrobotanist at Alpine Archaeological Consultants, Inc. Economic activity meant to replicate that associated with a hearth or roasting pit provided the control sample from this type of a feature. Starch analysis of these samples was undertaken to provide...

McDonald Springs (45KT00248) is an extensive lithic scatter surrounding a spring. Several groundstone tools were selected from the ground surface near the excavation area and submitted for starch analysis to address the research question of the types of food prepared and consumed at site 45KT00248. Analysis was limited to starch because the groundstone was recovered from the surface.

Four ground-stone tools from Site LA 143755 were examined for starch grains and phytoliths. Site LA 143755 is a Late Archaic campsite in a stratigraphically buried context located along New Mexico Highway 128 in Lea County, New Mexico. The goal of this analysis is to identify microscopic plant remains that may be present on the working surfaces of these tools.

Nine stone tools, mostly groundstone, were submitted for starch analysis from the Siren Site, 41WM1126, Texas. Because the extraction method produced phytoliths along with the starch, the phytoliths were also examined. The starch grains and phytoliths recovered from the use surfaces of these tools may provide subsistence and tool function information.

The Avalon Old Bridge Prehistoric Site (28-MI-275) is located near Deep Run in Old Bridge Township, Middlesex County, New Jersey. Phase III archaeological data recovery of the site by RGA Cultural Resource Consultants revealed cultural materials from the Early Archaic to the Woodland periods (Lauren Lembo, personal communication, December 18, 2018). RGA submitted two groundstones (Samples 126a and 359) and two lithic artifacts (Samples 168a and 328) to PaleoResearch Institute for starch analysis...

A total of 15 artifacts were submitted for starch grain analysis from the Gray Farm site (7K-F-11), located in Kent County, Delaware. These artifacts included stone tools and ceramics that have an Eastern Woodland cultural affiliation. Prehistoric occupation of this site spans the period from 3000 BC to AD 1500, and was followed by historic settlement and farming to the present day. The primary goal of this analysis was to recover and identify starch grains derived from plant resources that may...

A total of five ground stones and one pestle were submitted for pollen, starch, protein residue, and organic residue (FTIR) analysis from site CA-MRP-305/H, located in the Yosemite Valley, and within the boundaries Yosemite National Park. This site is a milling station with contiguous deposits of pestles, handstones, and obsidian flakes. Archaeobotanical and organic residue analysis of these tools will provide information useful to the interpretation of ground stone tool function and subsistence...

Thirty-six samples, consisting of feature fill, groundstone, fire-cracked rock, and soil controls, from 48SW16971, a multi-component site located southwest of Wamsutter, Wyoming were submitted for starch, protein, and organic residue analysis. Samples were tested for organic residues using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Site 48SW16971 is comprised of Transitional Archaic and Formative components that have been identified through radiocarbon dating of unspecified charred...

Site 5MF3006, located in Moffat County, yielded numerous manos and metates, indicating that grinding starchy food was important to the occupants of this site. Sampling focus was on groundstone and control samples related to these groundstone. Analyses selected for identifying food processing include starch, protein residue, and FTIR.

State Recreation Areas Arbitrary Investigation 1979–1985 is comprised of numerous small investigations. All materials had been stored in the same AAL box, and the associated documentation did not clarify which artifacts or accession numbers were from different projects. The only known investigations in this collection were identified using the AAL project numbers 79FR11 and 79IA6, which were identified on a box list supplied by AAL. It is believed that these two project numbers are related and...

This report provides an overview of six years of fieldwork and research at the Blue Creek site. At this stage the project is designed to be an investigation of the internal structure of a single Maya city, with consideration of the city's temporal and functional dynamics as well as relationships with its neighbors. This report summarizes the status of these efforts both topically and in terms of fieldwork accomplished and future field seasons.
