POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL INTERPRETATIONS FROM THE VERMILION CLIFFS AREA, SOUTHWESTERN UTAH

Author(s): Linda J. Scott; PaleoResearch Institute

Year: 1984

Summary

Four archaeological sites in the Vermilion Cliffs area approximately 26

miles east of Kanab, Utah were sampled for pollen/macrofloral

analysis during archaeological testing. These Kayenta-Virgin Anasazi sites

are located in the Sonoran vegetation zone or southwestern Utah. Local

vegetation includes primarily Juniperus (juniper), Artemisia (sagebrush),

and Graminae (grasses). Pollen and macrofloral analyses at these sites were

directed towards the identification of the floral portion of the subsistence

base and examination of possible activity areas within sites 42KA2584 and

42KA2594.
