DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings.

Five pollen samples were collected from four strata at the Traveis 2 Site, 39WW15. The site represents a PaleoIndian occupation, dated to approximately 9500 BP. This site is located along the left bank of Lake Oahe (Missouri River) in north central South Dakota. Pollen analysis was designed to address environmental conditions at the time of occupation, as well as to identify any change in the vegetation between the occupation and sediments deposited prior to the occupation.
