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.
