POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT SITES 32DU396 AND 32DU1154, NORTH DAKOTA

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Kathryn Puseman; Thomas E. Moutoux

Year: 1996

Summary

Eight pollen and four macrofloral samples were examined from two sites overlooking the

modern Skunk Bay, an area formerly occupied by Skunk Creek, a tributary of the Missouri River

in North Dakota. Site 32DU396 represents a Besant occupation. A pollen column was studied

to provide information concerning paleoenvironmental conditions. In addition, both pollen and

macrofloral samples provide the potential for interpretation of subsistence activity associated with

features. Nearby site 32DU1154 is represented only by two flotation samples representing

burned features. These samples were examined to provide subsistence information.
