POLLEN AND STARCH ANALYSIS AT 48CA959, CARBON COUNTY, WYOMING
Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Thomas E. Moutoux
Year: 2002
Summary
Site 48CA959, located in the Porcupine watershed, yielded several Late Prehistoric, small
diameter, cylindrical pit/oven features. Calibrated radiocarbon ages reported for these features
range from AD 390 to AD 1000. Five of the features were selected for pollen analysis in an effort
to assist in identifying plants that might have been processed. In addition, four pollen and phytolith
samples were examined from a stratigraphic column to obtain a record of local vegetation from
slightly prior to occupation until the present.
