Report on the study of pollen samples from the Carlston-Annis shell midden site and test pit J-IV from Salts Cave Vestibule, Salts Cave, KY. Also see unpublished material "Additional Studies in Mammoth Cave National Park", 2006.
Date: 1973
Studied modern pollen rain/vegetation pattern relationships through discriminant functions analysis in Mammoth Cave National Park, KY, and archaeological-context pollen records from local Middle Woodland and Late Woodland sites. Concludes that analysis of this sort identifies control data for interpreting archaeological pollen records in terms of paleovegetation and paleoecological patterns.
Modern, Early Woodland, Middle Woodland
Complacent pollen records associated with both extinct fauna and archaeological remains argues that Southwest has been semi-arid throughout Late- and Post-Pleistocene.
Pilot study of 9 pollen samples to assess pollen preservation, potential to aid stratigraphic analysis, and recognition of environmental changes.
