Some unusual patterns in the distribution of economic pollen types for an Anasazi site, including occurrence of "Gossypium."
Draft of an article submitted for publication in, "Plateau." Suggests discrepancies between pollen cross-dating and ceramic cross-dates with tree rings may be the expected consequence of difference between the time pollen is deposited in a sample and the duration of the use-lifes of ceramic styles associated with the sample. Rejected by reviewers.
Draft of report published in C.F. Schaafsma, 1980, The Cerrito Site: A Piedra Lumbre Phase Settlement at Abiquiu Reservoir. School of American Research, Santa Fe.

Reports preliminary results of study of pollen samples from La Atalaya, La Cofradia and Cerro de Moctehuma archaeological sites. The 4-zone stratified pollen sequence from La Ayala allows the other two sites to be cross-dated. Subsequently published in Southern Illinois Museum Papers.
