Year: 1996

Summary

Soil samples from Sites AZ BB:9:57(ASM),AZ BB:9:160(ASM), and AZ BB:9:189(ASM)

in southern Arizona were examined for pollen and macrofloral remains. These sites are part of

the Honeybee Ridge Mitigation project. Site AZ BB:9:57(ASM) may be a field house or resource

processing area. Site AZ BB:9:160(ASM) is a resource processing area that appears to have

been utilized during the late Colonial or Sedentary Periods of the Tucson Basin Hohokam

Sequence. Site AZ BB:9:189(ASM) is a multicomponent site with Tucson Basin Hohokam

prehistoric and historic components. The main focus of all three sites appears to have been

resource processing. Pollen and macrofloral analyses are used to provide information

concerning plant resources that were processed at these sites.
