POLLEN AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM A STRATIGRAPHIC TRENCH, PROJECT 560-001, FT. BLISS, TEXAS (2003)
Pollen and phytolith analyses were undertaken on three samples from an off-site stratigraphic profile to provide a description of local and regional vegetation that could be interpreted to provide paleoenvironmental information. This profile was exposed in a backhoe trench located offsite, but near a Mesilla Phase archaeological site at Ft. Bliss, Texas. The trench transected five strata that appear to be a buried paleosol overlain by a recent eolian sand sheet. The paleosol consists of a...
PROTEIN AND ORGANIC RESIDUE (FTIR) ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM CULP CANYON AND THE SOUTHERN SACRAMENTO MOUNTAINS, FORT BLISS MILITARY INSTALLATION, TEXAS (2009)
Three projectile points and five feature fill samples were submitted for protein and organic residue analysis, respectively. The feature fill samples were tested for organic residues using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Residue analysis should provide information on subsistence, including materials processed, and possible functions of the artifacts and features, as well as shed light on group mobility.
