POLLEN ANALYSIS OF A FLOOR AT CA-SBa-46 (MESCALITAN ISLAND), SANTA BARBARA, CALIFORNIA

Summary

Approximately one-third of the floor of an historic Chumash house was

excavated on f1escalitan Island (CA-SBa-46). The floor was sampled for

pollen along a 25 cm grid. The floor was clay, while the surrounding floor

matrix was sand, so analysis of floor sediments that contained pollen and

other debris that had been impressed into the surface was undertaken to

identify evidence of subsistence and plant processing activities in the

structure.
