POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM SITE AR-03-08-02-419 (LA 115574) FOR THE SACRAMENTO RIVER ROAD, NEW MEXICO
Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Kathryn Puseman
Year: 2002
Summary
Samples from two pit features at Site AR-03-08-02-419 (LA 115574) were examined for
pollen and macrofloral remains. In addition, a macrofloral sample was collected from the general
site surface to serve as a control. This site is part of the Sacramento River Road project in
southern New Mexico. The site yielded Iithics dating to the Archaic period, although a single
radiocarbon sample from one of the pit features yielded a conventional radiocarbon age of 200 ±
60 BP (Beta-167292). This area has experienced some historic burns. Pollen and macrofloral
analyses are used to provide information concerning subsistence resources utilized by the site
occupants.
