POLLEN AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS AT 9RI165 ON THE RIVERFRONT AUGUSTA ARCHEOLOGICAL DATA RECOVERY PROJECT, GEORGIA

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings

Year: 1990

Summary

Four pollen and four phytolith samples were analyzed from three fea

tures at 9RI165 to provide information concerning local vegetation at the

time the site was occupied. Pollen and phytolith samples from this Historic

site represent occupations between the 1820s and the 1880s. Pollen and

phytolith analysis has concentrated on three features, which include a woodlined

privy from the 1860s, a large brick well/cistern associated with a

postbellum brick dwelling (1870s-1880s), and an historic trash pit (F. 259),

associated with an antebellum (1820s-1850s) occupation of Springfield's free

black community.
