POLLEN ANALYSIS FOR ONE SAMPLE FROM THE GOBBLERS KNOW 327 SITE (48SU6933), SUBLETTE COUNTY, WYOMING

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings

Year: 2010

Summary

One soil sample from Site 48SU6933, the Gobblers Know 327 site, was submitted for examination of pollen remains. This prehistoric open camp is located in Sublette County, southwestern Wyoming. Radiocarbon dates from two features at this site returned dates of 3660 ± 40 YBP and 5380 ± 40 YBP, indicating occupation of this site during the Pine Spring phase of the Late Archaic period, and the Opal phase of the Early Archaic period (Joni Stainbrook, personal communication, December 6, 2010). Pollen analysis was undertaken to provide subsistence information concerning plant resources utilized by the occupants of the site,although it usually also contributes to an understanding of local vegetation at the time of or immediately after site occupation.
