POLLEN, STARCH, AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS FOR SITES IN THE ASHLEY NATIONAL FOREST, UTAH (2006)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman. Linda Scott Cummings. Jaime Dexter. R.A. Varney.

Samples were collected and examined from prehistoric sites 42DA1392, 42DC1859, and 42DC1861 in the Ashley National Forest of northwestern Utah. These sites represent multiple occupations of the area. Radiocarbon dates reflect Early Archaic and Fremont occupations at 42DC1392, with Late Archaic and Fremont occupations at 42DC1859 and 42DC1861. Soil samples from these sites were analyzed for evidence of pollen/starches and macrofloral remains. Charcoal was collected from macrofloral samples...


POLLEN, STARCH, AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM THE CEDAR BREAKS PROJECT, NEW MEXICO (2004)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. R.A. Varney.

Fifty combination pollen, starch, and phytolith samples were examined from seven archaeological sites on the Cedar Breaks Project, New Mexico. This project is located in the Mescalero Sands environmental area of southeastern New Mexico.


PRELIMINARY POLLEN ANALYSIS AT THE MAIN SITE (15BL35), KENTUCKY (1992)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings.

Five pollen samples representing cultural fill of Feature 203 were examined for their pollen content. In addition, a single sample was examined from the cultural level into which Feature 203 was dug. This study was undertaken to determine whether or not pollen representing economically important plants was preserved in the feature and whether it could contribute to an identification of the function of this feature. Samples were collected stratigraphically through the fill.


PRELIMINARY POLLEN, PHYTOLlTH, AND STARCH ANALYSIS FOR SITES LA138517 AND LA101481 (2004)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. R.A. Varney.

Two sites, located within the upper limits of Cedar Lake Draw in the Loco Hills, include a scatter of artifacts, burned caliche, and thermal features. The absence of middens argues for temporary settlements defined by simple fire hearths and a light scatter of artifacts that include flakes, cores, hammerstones, groundstone, and an occasional brownware sherd. Radiocarbon dates indicate occupation falls between approximately 2880 and 6280 BP. Combined pollen, phytolith, and starch analysis...
