MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT THE FLOWER HILL SITE, PHASE I AND III, NISKAYUNA, NEW YORK
Author(s): Kathryn Puseman; Jaime Dexter
Year: 2007
Summary
Three macrofloral samples were collected from the fill of two basin-shaped pits and a
large thermal feature during Phase I investigations at the Flower Hill Site in Schenectady
County, New York. Archaeological investigations were undertaken due to proposed subdivision
construction in the town of Niskayuna. Recovery of one Lamoka-type projectile point suggests
that the site represents a Late Archaic Lamoka Phase occupation of the area. Additional
samples from these three features, as well as from other units and trenches at the site, were
examined for macrofloral remains during Phase III investigations. Macrofloral analysis is used
to provide subsistence information concerning plant resources utilized by the site occupants.
