Letter report of pollen study suggests the Colorado Plateau Pollen Chronology
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."
Attempt to cross-date alluvial beds through pollen study of CCa horizon samples failed. Pollen concentrations too low, though pollen preservation was adequate.
Unpublished report, 1964
Pilot study of 3 pollen samples allows vegetation pattern reconstruction for period of occupation and suggests successful maize farming required water control technology.
