Author(s): Kathryn Puseman

Year: 2003

Summary

A single sample from a small hearth at site 32GT241 on the Heart River in Grant County,

southwest North Dakota, was examined for macrofloral remains. Wood charcoal from this site

yielded a conventional radiocarbon age of 2560 ± 30 years B.P, indicating a Late Plains Archaic

occupation. Macrofloral analysis of the hearth fill is used to provide information concerning plant

resources that might have been processed in the hearth and types of wood burned as fuel.
