POLLEN, PHYTOLITH, AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF SOD FROM FT. LARNED NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE, CENTRAL KANSAS
Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Kathryn Puseman
Year: 1995
Summary
Six paired pollen and phytolith samples and two macrofloral samples were
examined from sod preserved beneath Historic Structures 7 and 8 at Ft. Larned
National Historic Site, Kansas. Microscopic evaluation of botanic remains
(pollen, phytolith, and macrofloral remains) from this sod was undertaken to
identify plants that grew as part of the local prairie vegetation at the time
these structures were built. The pollen, phytolith, and macrofloral studies were
expected to contribute different but complementary data towards this
interpretation.
