MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS OF HEARTH FILL FROM UTE TEEPEE ENCAMPMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE 2ND LOS PINOS INDIAN AGENCY NEAR MONTROSE, COLORADO

Author(s): Kathryn Puseman; Laura Buethel

Year: 2003

Summary

The fill from nine hearths associated with two Ute teepee encampments that were tethered

to the 2nd Los Pinos Indian Agency near Montrose, Colorado, were examined for macrofloral

remains. The teepee sites are believed to date between 1875 and 1881. One of the hearths might

represent an unrelated prehistoric occupation or a dependency, such as a menstrual hut, for one

of the lodges. Macrofloral analysis will be used to provide information concerning plant resources

utilized by the various site occupants.
