EXAMINATION OF FIVE PIECES OF GROUNDSTONE FROM LANDER CDUNTY, CENTRAL NEVADA, FOR POLLEN, PHYTOLITHS, STARCH GRANULES, AND BLOOD RESIDUE TO INTERPRET SUBSISTENCE ACTIVITIES

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Kathryn Puseman

Year: 1993

Summary

Five pieces of groundstone were evaluated to assess the potential for further studies of this material to provide subsistence information. Ground stone was recovered from three sites in Lander County, central Nevada. Pollen, phytolith, starch granules, and blood residue were examined from these pieces of groundstone to assess the potential for further analysis of groundstone artifacts

from sites in this vicinity. This study addresses specific recovery of these remains from the five pieces of groundstone studied, and interpretation of these data bases for the subsistence record.
