DOCUMENT
Full-Text
Ten samples collected stratigraphically through sediment from a suspected privy pit and a post mold at Fort Clatsop, Oregon, were examined for pollen, starch, parasites, phytoliths, and macrofloral remains to obtain information that might assist in identifying the function of these features. The presence or absence of parasite eggs and/or recovery of probable food remains are used to contribute to an interpretation of privy function.
