Full-Text
Ten pollen and ten phytolith samples were examined from site 50-10-31-5003. Pollen samples were collected stratigraphically from layers in a lava tube to examine the prehistoric vegetation record. Phytolith samples were collected from individual pits created by breaking the tops of large bubbles in the lava and creating pits. It is possible that sweet potato was grown in the pits and that they were mulched.
