DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda J. Scott. PaleoResearch Institute.

Salvage archaeological mitigation of site 42SA16011 in San Juan County, Utah delineated a large oval, slab-lined cist/oven and accompanying shallow ash midden area. Excavation of this cist revealed five distinct stratum, which were sampled for pollen and/or macrofloral analysis in an effort to define the plants that may have been prepared or cooked within this feature. A radiocarbon date from the floor of the cist is reported as AD 140 + 80.
