Description

Palynological study of 18 samples, including 5 associated with Archaic Period radiocarbon dates and 1 associated with Fremont Culture artifacts, identifies a pollen sequence for the site. The inferred paleoclimatic sequence fully agrees with dated sequences from central New Mexico and the Llano Estacado.

DescriptionStudy of more than 100 pollen records to: define the site's PIV and Historic horizons pollen sequence, determine changes in arboreal coverage over time, assess likelihood of paleoclimatic change, and to consider the effects of pre-existing environments on culture.

DescriptionComparison of pollen records of 7 archaeological context samples from this site with the Colorado Plateau Pollen Chronology suggests occupation began before A.D. 850 and persisted at least until A.D. 900. These dates are consistant with associated ceramic styles.

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.

Description

Draft of an article submitted for publication in, "Plateau." Suggests discrepancies between pollen cross-dating and ceramic cross-dates with tree rings may be the expected consequence of difference between the time pollen is deposited in a sample and the duration of the use-lifes of ceramic styles associated with the sample. Rejected

Description

Report on a classroom pollen study using samples from a site and artificial terraces near Zuni Pueblo. Correspondence with the Colorado Plateau Pollen Chronology allows dating of site-context deposits. Some unusual patterns in the distribution of economic pollen types for an Anasazi site, including occurrence of "Gossypium."

Description
Analysis of palynological and radiocarbon data from this site with comparable data from other sites leads to a general paleoenvironmental model covering the 8300-6000 B.P. period for the American Southwest. This allows reconstruction of the character of paleoclimatic variations on the resources used by the Archaic occupants of this cave

Analysis of palynological and radiocarbon data from this site with comparable data from other sites leads to a general paleoenvironmental model covering the 8300-6000 B.P. period for the American Southwest. This allows reconstruction of the character of paleoclimatic variations on the resources used by the Archaic occupants of this cave site, and assessment of theories of the Anthropology of Southwestern Archaic populations.
