POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT SITE 48LN1185 IN SOUTHWESTERN WYOMDK5

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Kathryn Puseman

Year: 1991

Summary

Samples from site 48LN1185 were sampled for pollen and macrofloral remains.

This site is a multi<x>mpanent site located in the Wyoming Basin in southwestern

Wyoming. Radiocarbon dates suggest Early Archaic to Late Prehistoric

ocxxpatians, approximately 6760 to 910 BP. Three pollen surface control samples

were taken from locations surrounding the excavation area. Five samples were

taken from a soil column in the west wall of the pipeline trench. Pollen

analysis of these samples will provide information to assist in recxmsrtructing

the paleoenvironment. A metate fragment was also washed for pollen. Pollen

analysis of this wash and macrofloral analysis of the twelve flotation samples

taken from features address subsistence activities at this site.
