PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS FOR THE STACY/O.H. IVIE RESERVOIR PROJECT, TEXAS

Summary

Phytolith analysis was undertaken at eleven sites in the Stacy/O.H.

Ivie Reservoir Project Area. The purpose of this analysis was to determine

the feasibility of recovering a sufficient quantity of phytoliths to recommend

a paleoenvironmental study from both feature and stratigraphic contexts

in the project area. Within the confines of limited number of samples per

site, results are presented. Data generated from this phytolith study will

also be used elsewhere to compare with the pollen record. Phytolith samples

represent feature associations, as well as stratigraphic profiles, although

most of the samples submitted for this testing phase analysis represent

feature contexts.
