PHYTOLITH AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF FEATURE AND COLUMN SAMPLES FROM SITE 35D061, OREGON

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Kathryn Puseman

Year: 1997

Summary

Site 35D061 is located along the North Umpqua River in western Oregon. Paired

phytolith and macrofloral samples were examined from column sediments through cultural

remains and a feature at this site to identify both past vegetation and human use of plants. All

samples were wet when collected and air-dried prior to submission for analysis, making pollen

analysis for this material impossible due to modern contamination. The primary research

question for this area is the identification of human uses of this watershed during prehistory and

up to the present day.
