Hinkson Site Palynology (1990)
Use of sediment samples collected from the Hinkson Site for a classroom research project late in 1989 provided opportunity to extract and examine the pollen they contained. Since the effort was undertaken by students with no prior experience of pollen study, the raw data is to some degree suspect. However, the student work was supervised by experienced personnel, and students were encouraged to rely on supervisory help whenever a problematic issue arose. The samples should be re-observed before...
