POLLEN AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS OF SEDIMENT SAMPLES FROM THE MILITARY TRAIL AND BADGER HOLE SITES, OKLAHOMA

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings; Chad Yost

Year: 2012

Summary

Four sediment samples representing buried A horizons at the Military Trail and Badger Hole sites in the panhandle of Oklahoma were submitted for pollen and phytolith analysis to determine the extent of preservation. The Military Trail profile is located in Harper County, Oklahoma approximately 1 mile from the Jake Bluff and Cooper bison kill sites. The Badger Hole site is located approximately 300 m from Jake Bluff. Preliminary pollen and phytolith analysis of these sediments was undertaken to assess the level of preservation and guide future sampling at these sites.
