POLLEN AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS, AND CHARCOAL AND SEED IDENTIFICATION OF SAMPLES FROM THE SKULL HEARTH SITE (48CA214), WYOMING

Summary

The Skull Hearth Site (48CA214) contains Middle Plains Archaic, Late Plains Archaic, and Late Prehistoric campsites. One house pit (S2B4-F2) contained seven thermal features clustered and slightly offset from the center of the house pit that probably represent hearths and ovens. Fill from these the features was submitted and examined for pollen and phytolith evidence of economic activity. Three charcoal and two botanic samples recovered from S1B6-F1 and S1B7-F1 were submitted for identification.
