PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF PETRIFIED WOOD LITHIC ARTIFACTS FROM THE HILLTOP SITE, 5PA2332, SOUTH PARK, COLORADO

Author(s): Kathryn Puseman

Year: 2004

Summary

Thirteen lithic artifacts believed to exhibit residues were submitted for protein residue

analysis to confirm the presence of residues and possibly determine the nature of the residues.

These petrified wood artifacts were recovered from the Hilltop Site (5PA2332) as part of the

South Park Archaeological Project in central Colorado. Protein residues from an artifact's

surface can provide information concerning animal resources that were processed by the site

occupants.
