POLLEN AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS, AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF SAMPLES FROM SITE AR0308030704, LINCOLN NATIONAL FOREST, NEW MEXICO
Author(s): Peter Kovacik; Linda Scott Cummings
Year: 2013
Summary
Site AR0308030704 is a possible prehistoric site containing a “ring midden” roasting pit, located in the Lincoln National Forest, New Mexico. A soil sample from the roasting pit was submitted for pollen and macrofloral analysis along with two charcoal samples for identification. Potentially AMS radiocarbon datable materials were separated and one sample was selected for dating. Lithic fragments collected at the site suggest middle to late Archaic Period occupation; however, Apache occupation, dating to 1500s, is also noted in the area (Diane Prather, personal communication, December 1, 2012).
