MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT THE "STAMPFLI SITE," PLUMAS COUNTY, CALIFORNIA

Summary

A single sample from a possible midden deposit near the center of the "Stampfli Site" in

Plumas County, northern California, was examined for macrofloral remains. This site is located

in the southern portion of Indian Valley, which was previously marshy. Today, the valley floor

has been selectively dried by channeling water for farming and ranching, while the margins

have been developed for rural residences. Macrofloral analysis is used to provide information

concerning plant resources that might have been utilized by the prehistoric occupants of this

site.
