Description
Paper presented at the annual meetings of the Society for American Archeology, 1958.

Paper presented at the annual meetings of the Society for American Archeology, 1958. Discusses assumptions and problems of: techniques for extracting and identifying pollen, pollen distributions and deposition, analysis and statistics. Concludes that pollen study alone is not too reliable a methodology for establishing the types or durations of prior climatic events but it is reliable for reconstructing their geographic distributions and hypotheses of the reasons for climatic change.

Sampling for Micro-Archaeological Research

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1956
DescriptionReports 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.

Phytogeography as a Survey Technique in Wisconsin

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1969
DescriptionAbstract of paper presented at the annual meetings off the Society for American Archeology, 1969. The antiquity of certain sites in north-central Wisconsin may be predicted by the character of associated forest vegetation. The data also justify paleoecological hypotheses relevant to culture historical reconstructions.

The American Bottoms Pollen Chronology

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Contributor)
Created1971
Description
Paper prepared for the 1971 Cahokia Ceramic Conference. This conference resulted in the chronological scheme of phases for American Bottoms and other Mississippian Culture sites that has remained in use to the present time. That scheme was published as Fowler, Melvin L. and R. H. Hall, 1972, Archaeological Phases at…

Paper prepared for the 1971 Cahokia Ceramic Conference. This conference resulted in the chronological scheme of phases for American Bottoms and other Mississippian Culture sites that has remained in use to the present time. That scheme was published as Fowler, Melvin L. and R. H. Hall, 1972, Archaeological Phases at Cahokia. Illinois State Museum Research Series Papers in Anthropology No. 1. Springfield. The relationship of the pollen chronology to the ceramic phase sequence was not explored by the authors of that volume.

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1976
DescriptionProposes the initial phase of a long-term interdisciplinary research project to investigate the botanical, historical, anthropological and geological variables significant to scientific understanding of central Sonora, Mexico. Argues for development of new, truely interdisciplinary, research methodologies and research designs. Proposal never submitted.

The Application of Palynology to Archaeology, Limitations and Practical Suggestions

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1976
DescriptionPaper presented at the annual meeting of the Society for American Archeology. Explores types of information archaeologists can and cannot expect to obtain from initial palynological investigations at archaeological sites. Includes suggestions on pollen sampling.

A Post-Glacial Pollen Sequence From Dark Canyon Cave, New Mexico (With W.H. Balgemann)

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author) / Baglemann, Wilfred H. (Author)
Created1961
Description

Complacent pollen records associated with both extinct fauna and archaeological remains argues that Southwest has been semi-arid throughout Late- and Post-Pleistocene.

Specialized Problems of Archaeological Pollen Studies

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1962
DescriptionPaper presented at the annual meeting of the Society for American Archeology, 1962. Explores limitations of pollen studies intentionally designed to resolve problems of archaeological significance: issues of pollen preservation, cultural effects on the record, horizon/pollen zone duration, extraction technology, necessity to recognize interdisciplinary effects on methods and interpretation.
