Stratigraphic Column Samples (Other Keyword)
1-5 (5 Records)
The Harrower site (48SU867) is located along both sides of Dry Piney Creek in the Overthrust Belt of Sublette County, southwestern Wyoming. This multicomponent site exhibits cultural material dating between 13,620 B.P. and 280 B.P. Pollen samples from a stratigraphic column were collected and analyzed at 5 cm intervals and represent the paleoenvironment from approximately 12,000 B.P. to 9000 B.P., and 3300 B.P. to the present. In addition, a single sample from the moss underlying this column...
PALEOENVIRONMENTAL AND SUBSISTENCE DATA FOR THREE SITES IN THE EASTERN SEVIER DESERT, WESTERN UTAH (1985)
Three of the archaeological sites mitigated in connection with the 345kv Intermountain - Mona Line 1 were sampled for pollen. These three sites (42Md620, 42Md827, and 42Md828) are located in the northeastern portion of Millard County in western Utah. Sites 42Md828 and 42Md827 are located in semi-stabilized sand dunes along the eastern edge of the Sevier Desert, approximately .95 km south of the Sevier River. Site 42Md620 is located in the Fishlake National Forest at the western base of the...
POLLEN ANALYSIS AT SITE 5AA952, ARCHULETA COUNTY, COLORADO (1995)
Site 5AA952 is situated in an over-grazed meadow at an elevation of approximately 7100 feet in the San Juan Mountains of southern Colorado. Ceramics recovered from the surface include Pueblo I grayware, and groundstone is abundant. Cultural material was recovered throughout sediments excavated in test unit 1. Three pieces of groundstone and 15 sediment samples were examined from this site to identify plants used by the occupants of this site, as well as changes in local vegetation from the base...
POLLEN AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS OF SOIL SAMPLES AT SITE 35LA343 WILLAMETTE NATIONAL FOREST, OREGON (1996)
The Rigdon Meadows Site (35LA343) is located within the Rigdon Ranger District of the Willamette National Forest, Oregon. The site covers approximately three acres and extends beyond the meadow into the adjacent and surrounding forest. Both prehistoric and historic artifacts are noted at this site. Four stratigraphic soil samples were recovered from a test unit immediately adjacent to Rigdon meadows, and were submitted for pollen and phytolith analysis. The pollen and phytolith record help...
The Taliaferro Site: 5000 Years of Prehistory in Southwest Wyoming, Appendix D: Pollen Analysis (1988)
The Taliaferro site is a multi-component site located in the Green River Basin. Pollen samples were collected from this site during archaeological excavations to examine both paleoenvironment and subsistence. Occupation ranges from approximately 5290 to 960 years B.P., with the majority of the occupation falling post-1500 years B.P. Two stratigraphic columns were sampled at the site to provide data for the paleoenvironmental reconstruction. The later occupations (post-2900 years B.P.) are...
