Pollen Analysis (Other Keyword)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings.

A single sample from a gleyed, organic-rich sandy layer within deposits identified as representing a brackish estuary for the Maunalua 2 Project was examined for pollen in an effort to confirm that this area was used as a fish pond. In addition, pollen analysis has the potential to identify some of the local plants growing at the time this area was used.

Seven pollen samples collected from four separate cores at the Kamo’omaika’i fish pond in the Hanalei Ahupua’a of the Halele’a district in Kaua’i were examined (Table 1). The historic use of the area as a fishpond and also for rice agriculture is documented in the historic record. The use of this area prior to 1816, when it was described as a fish pond, is explored through this pollen analysis.

Five sediment samples from two cores collected at site GA426, located approximately 31 miles offshore near Galveston, Texas, were examined for pollen. The site is on an old river terrace that is now submerged in an estuary or back bay. The site is a possible Paleoindian site that is expected to date to between approximately 9,000 and 10,000 BP. The area was above water during the last glacial maximum and was subsequently submerged in the range of 8,400 to 10,000 BP (Patrick Hesp, personal...

Site 48SU379 is situated approximately 17 miles southwest of the town of Pinedale, Wyoming in the northern portion of the Green River Basin and approximately 1,000 ft south of the New Fork River on a high terrace overlooking the New Fork floodplain. The site consists of a significant lithic scatter of debitage and thermally altered rock. Fill and groundstone samples from several features present within the site were submitted for pollen analysis. The goal of the analysis was to identify foods...

Twenty sediment samples collected from agricultural terraces at Wawakiki along the southern coast of Peru in the Department of Moquegua. Four different time periods are represented at this site, dating from the Early Ceramic (extending to approximately AD 700- 800), the Chiribaya (AD 800-1350), the Early Spanish Colonial Period (AD 1600-1750), and finally the Late Spanish Colonial/Early Modern Era (AD 1750-1900). Although Wawakiki is one of a series of spring-fed agricultural systems north...

Previous testing on five terraces at Machu Picchu yielded a wide variety of pollen representing grasses, cloud forest plants, and agricultural crops. Previously, pollen samples were examined from three depths on five terraces to assess the quality of pollen preservation, provide a pollen record of plants growing on and near the terraces, and identify the presence of any agricultural crops (Cummings 2000). That study yielded sufficient pollen preservation and a wide variety of pollen...

Site 48SW13143 (18-WAS-008) is located on the southeastern slope of a northeast/southwest-trending low ridge complex in the Washakie Basin of Sweetwater County, Wyoming. During data recovery excavation in connection with the Mountain Gas Resources Caprock 1599-23-41H Pipeline Evaluative Testing, three sub-surface basin hearth features, including Features 1 and 3, were discovered within an area (ca. 8 x 6 m) containing four previously recorded, scattered hearth features and a possible ash dump...

Three soil samples and one ground stone artifact from upland sites in the Sandhills of North Carolina were submitted for pollen analysis. The Blackjack Site (31CD1035) and the McFadyen Pond Site (31CD1008), both of which are of unknown cultural affiliation and date, are in vegetational communities dominated by longleaf pine, wire grass, and small oaks. Samples examined from the blackjack site represent a ground stone wash and soil collected from beneath the ground stone artifact. The McFayden...

Wolf Village, 42UT273, is a Fremont site located north of the mouth of Goshen Canyon in Utah County, Utah. Radiocarbon dates on corn from this site range from AD 840 to 1,000. Investigating the subsistence base includes examining four pieces of groundstone for pollen evidence of grinding. Six ceramic pipes also were submitted with the goal of identifying the single best sample for analysis of pollen, phytoliths, starch, macrofloral remains, and organic residue (FTIR). Two more pipe samples...

A sediment sample was collected from the Holland Road Pit Site for pollen analysis. An OSL date of 116,000 years was obtained on gray sediments containing gravel that is overlain by beige sand. The till above the gray sediment is probably a weathered version of the black till from the Rosslyn cut-bank that yielded a radiocarbon date of about 42,000 cal BP.

The area near Lizard Man Village east of Flagstaff might have been used extensively or intermittently as an agricultural area. Examination of three samples collected from two areas best described as depressions that might represent field areas and another possible field area near a field house for pollen evidence of agriculture provided evidence of maize agriculture.

Seven pollen samples were examined from two sites in the Cave Creek Recreation Area of northern Maricopa County, Arizona. Rock alignments noted at AZ U:1:98 (ASM) and AZ U:1:100 (ASM) may have functioned as check dams, contour terraces or linear borders, retaining walls, diversions walls, rock piles, and/or rock-weighted brush berms. These areas exhibit no evidence of prehistoric canals, and are assumed to have been watered exclusively by hillslope runoff. Examination of pollen samples from...

Project HAENA 5, located in coastal Hā’ena on the north shore of Kauai, discovered possible wet land lo’i taro agriculture sediments. Therefore, pollen analysis was undertaken on the sediments from both this area at site 50-30-02-458 and also from a nearby area that might include agricultural sediments from site 50-30-04-458.

Two ceramic sherds representing a pot and a red bowl were recovered from Tsaghkahovit, Armenia. The cooking pot, recovered from locus 17, exhibited burning on the exterior of the body as well as residue on the inside. The small fineware bowl, found in locus 38, also contained residue on the inside. Residue was scraped from the inside of both of these intact ceramic vessels and submitted for pollen and starch analysis to determine their contents.
