POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF TWO ROASTING PITS AT SITE 48WA1354, WYOMING
Author(s): Kathryn Puseman; Linda Scott Cummings
Year: 1996
Summary
Samples from the fill of two roasting pits at Site 48WA1354 in the Bighorn Basin of north central
Wyoming were analyzed for pollen and macrofloral remains. A flat rock also was
recovered from one of the roasting pits and washed for pollen. Uncalibrated radiocarbon dates
from the features range from 1280 to 1420 BP and suggest use during the Late Prehistoric
period. Pollen and macrofloral analyses are used to provide information concerning possible
plant resources utilized and/or processed in these roasting pits.
