POLLEN, PHYTOLITH, AND PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSES FOR RANCHO VERDE, SITE W-240, CALIFORNIA
Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Kathryn Puseman; Thomas E. Moutoux
Year: 1999
Summary
Pollen, phytolith, and/or protein residue analysis were conducted on a variety of tools and
associated soil controls from Rancho Verde, Site W-240, in southern California. Site W-240
exhibits both a Paleo-lndian (San Dieguito) assemblage and an Archaic assemblage. Current
debate ranges over whether the groundstone belongs to the Archaic occupation or the Paleolndian
occupation. Pollen, phytolith, and protein residue analyses were conducted at this site
to assist in identifying the range of activities undertaken by the San Dieguito Paleo-lndian
occupants of this site, as well as the Archaic occupants.
