MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT SITES 32GT8, 32GT11, AND 32GT238 IN THE HEART BUTTE RESERVOIR RECREATION AREA, NORTH DAKOTA

Author(s): Kathryn Puseman

Year: 2001

Summary

Samples from sites 32GT8, 32GT11, and 32GT238 in southwestern North Dakota were

examined for macrofloral remains. These sites are part of the Heart Butte Reservoir project area

surrounding the Heart Butte dam and reservoir (Lake Tschida) in Grant County. The sites

represent single component Plains Village occupations. One sample from 32GT11 and two

samples from 32GT238 consist of the floated light fractions from shallow basin hearths in open

campsite settings. The remaining 18 samples consist of charred botanic remains recovered from

general level water screen units. Macrofloral analysis is used to provide information concerning

plant resources available to and utilized by the various occupants of these sites.
