POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT THE GILA BUTTE SITE (AZ U:13:8(ASM)), ARIZONA

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Kathryn Puseman

Year: 1993

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Samples from a small burned fieldhouse and an associated trash deposit at

Site AZ U: 13:8 (ASM) were sampled for pollen and macrofloral remains. This site

is a Preclassic and Classic ballcourt village, and the fieldhouse and trash

deposit appear to date to the Sacaton phase. Pollen and macrofloral analyses

provide information concerning items discarded in the trash and possible

subsistence activities. In addition, pollen samples were examined from Sedentary

or Classic period lateral and distribution canals and from a Classic period main

canal to provide information about crops grown in nearby fields.
