DescriptionPaper presented at the annual meetings of the Society for American Archeology, 1961. Discusses pollen sequence changes and environmental shifts evidenced by samples from ten sites and modern surface controls. Pollen record suggests irrigation in the Little Colorado River Basin 1275-1300 A.D.

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 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.

Description
Pollen study of 6 surface and 11 archaeological-context samples from 2 sites of the Navajo Irrigation District salvage archaeology project. Correlation with the Colorado Plateau Pollen Chronology is consistent with ceramic dating of the sites and features sampled. Includes discussion of this and other occurrences of "Juglans."

DescriptionClassroom excercise study of 32 samples from proxy surface, dune and pithouse contexts. Analysis used pollen categories rather than traditional pollen taxa. Results suggest the site's occupation history incorporates 5 distinct episodes of ecosystem change.
