POLLEN, PHYTOLlTH, MACROFLORAL, AND PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM SITE 26CK2605
Author(s): Kathryn Puseman; Linda Scott Cummings
Year: 2003
Summary
Samples from an Anasazi pit structure at site 26CK2605 in southern Nevada were
submitted for pollen, macrofloral, phytolith, and/or protein residue analyses. Fill from a Late
Archaic hearth also was examined for macrofloral remains. This site is very large and contains
numerous loci and features. The pit structure and thermal pit were located in Midden 1 at Locus
1 in the vicinity of a spring channel. Analyzes were conducted to address questions of subsistence.
Pollen, phytolith, and macrofloral analyses yield information concerning plant resources that were
utilized, while protein analysis of a hammerstone will be used to determine if identifiable plant or
animal protein residues are present on the artifact.
