Archaeological Palynology at AZ 2282: The Pilot Study

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1999
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.

The Value and Limitations of Palynological Interpretations

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1958
Description
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…

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.

Preliminary Pollen Studies Near Payson

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)

A Proposal for Interdisciplinary Investigations in North Central Sonora

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.

Pollen Studies in the Marble Canyon Area, Arizona (With V. DaCosta)

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author) / Da Costa, Veronica (Author)
Created1976
Description

Squash and possible maize pollen in sediment samples from checkdams suggests the features are prehistoric and were used for crop production. No evidence that local environment was different when the features were used.

Pollen Records from AZ:U:1:30 and U:1:31: An Assessment

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1976
Description
Pilot study to assess the type of archaeological-context pollen samples most likely to yield results commensurate with investment. Results suggest floor sediment and floor feature fill deposits will yield better data for developing a pollen sequence than floor contact deposits. Paleoenvironmental reconstruction, however, will require financial support for a major…

Pilot study to assess the type of archaeological-context pollen samples most likely to yield results commensurate with investment. Results suggest floor sediment and floor feature fill deposits will yield better data for developing a pollen sequence than floor contact deposits. Paleoenvironmental reconstruction, however, will require financial support for a major surface sample control research effort that cannot be justified as site-focussed cultural resources management.
