MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF A PRIVY DEPRESSION, FEATURE 24, AT SITE 24CA289

Summary

One sample from Feature 24 at Site 24CA289 in western Montana was sampled

for macrofloral remains. Feature 24 is a privy depression at the Morony Dam

construction camp. The privy is in the part of the camp known as Ragtown, where

at least fifteen construction workers and their families lived during dam

construction (Mitzi Rossillon, personal communication, August 5, 1992).

Macrofloral analysis of the privy fill will provide direct information concerning

diet of the construction workers and their families.
