POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF FIREPIT FILL AT SITE 5AM631, AURORA, COLORADO

Author(s): Kathryn Puseman; Linda Scott Cummings

Year: 1993

Summary

Test excavations at Site 5AM631 uncovered a buried firepit (Feature L) that

was sampled for pollen and macrofloral remains. This site contained both

historic and prehistoric components. The prehistoric component consists of a

lithic debitage, groundstone, and ceramic scatter, as well as cultural features

visible on the surface. Ceramics and projectile points suggest a Plains Woodland

occupation. Pollen and macrofloral analyses are used to provide information

concerning foods processed in this firepit.
