POLLEN, STARCH, PHYTOLlTH, AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF RESIDUE AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF BASKETRY MATERIAL FROM THE PECTOL COLLECTION, UTAH

Summary

Surface scrapings from the interior of a Fremont grayware cooking vessel were examined

for pollen, starches, and phytoliths in an effort to determine the food or foods cooked. In

addition, two residue samples were collected and examined from the interior of a large parching

tray. Structural elements of this parching tray also were identified. These samples are part of

the Pectol Collection consisting of Formative (Fremont) and Late Prehistoric artifacts that were

collected by a private collector in Wayne County, Utah, during the 1930s.
