TRACKING POSSIBLE ACORN USE AT SITES LA 113042, LA 129214, LA 129216, LA 129217, AND LA 129300, NEW MEXICO, AND NUTRITIONAL ANALYSIS OF ACORNS

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Melissa K. Logan; Chad Yost

Year: 2010

Summary

Eight stone tools consisting of two tabular knives, a metate, and seven manos from sites LA 113042, LA 129214, LA 129216, LA 129217, and LA 129300 were submitted for combined pollen, starch, protein, and organic residue analysis. These combined analyses provide a thorough examination, allowing for the potential for multiple lines of evidence to support subsistence strategies and tool function interpretations. In addition, acorns from two locations in New Mexico were submitted for a thorough nutritional analysis.
