POLLEN ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM GRANARY HOUSE AND LAVA RIDGE RUIN, SHIVOWITZ PLATEAU, ARIZONA

Summary

Lava Ridge Ruin and Granary House, located on the Shivwits Plateau in northern

Arizona, were excavated and sampled for pollen during the summer of 2007. Floors were

difficult to define at both villages, so pollen samples were collected from fill that represented

occupation and might be associated with floors. Pollen analysis was undertaken to identify

foods processed and cultigens grown at these two small villages.
