Description
Study of 23 pollen samples associated with archaeological sites in the Walhalla Glades district of Grand Canyon National Park yields surface sample data not consistant with prior research, possibly because the samples are actually of sediment deposited during the period the sites were occupied. Pollen record suggests local prehistoric cultivation

Study of 23 pollen samples associated with archaeological sites in the Walhalla Glades district of Grand Canyon National Park yields surface sample data not consistant with prior research, possibly because the samples are actually of sediment deposited during the period the sites were occupied. Pollen record suggests local prehistoric cultivation in a paleoenvironment quite distinct from that presently occurring in this district.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Description

Surface samples and stratigraphic sample series from 3 archaeological occupation sites and 2 samples from a burial site were examined for pollen in hopes of establishing a pollen sequence and paleoenvironmental interpretations. Both objectives achieved. Discussions of absolute dates of Woodland and Upper Republican contexts in this area and cultural

Surface samples and stratigraphic sample series from 3 archaeological occupation sites and 2 samples from a burial site were examined for pollen in hopes of establishing a pollen sequence and paleoenvironmental interpretations. Both objectives achieved. Discussions of absolute dates of Woodland and Upper Republican contexts in this area and cultural ecology are included.
