POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT SITES LA 79511 AND LA 89352, SAN JUAN COUNTY, NEW MEXICO
Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings
Year: 1992
Summary
Ttoo midden features from Sites LA 79511 and IA 89352, New Mexico, were
sanpled for pollen and macrofloral remains. Both sites appear to be Anasazi
Pueblo I Piedra Phase habitations, based on ceramic types recovered. Pollen and
macrofloral analysis of sanples from these middens provides subsistence
information, as well as some paleoenvironmental information. In addition, one
metate fragment was washed for pollen in order to identify plants possibly ground
on this metate. Modern soil control sanples were collected to provide a
ccrrparison for the archaeological pollen samples, and the bottom of the metate
was washed to provide a control for the top of the metate.
