MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT SITES 26CK1767, 26CK2451, AND 26CK5443 ALONG THE US 95 PROJECT CORRIDOR, CLARK COUNTY, NEVADA

Author(s): Kathryn Puseman

Year: 1998

Summary

Sediment samples from Sites 26CK1767, 26CK2451, and 26CK5443 were floated to

recover macrofloral remains. These sites are part of the US 95 project in Las Vegas, Nevada. Site

26CK1767 is a prehistoric lithic and historic trash scatter in an abandoned lot. This site once had

a free-flowing spring that is now capped. Site 26CK2451 is an historic house foundation that dates

to the 1940s/1950s. This house may relate to Black Culture occupation. Site 26CK5443 is an

historic trash dump with several large trash piles. Macrofloral analysis will be used to contribute

information on the region's history, and to help determine if sufficient materials/deposits exist to list

these sites on the National Register of Historic Places.
