DescriptionPaper presented at the annual meetings of the Society for American Archeology, 1957. Brief discussion of the then-present status of pollen analysis in New World archaeology, the potential archaeological value of an oil flotation technique for extracting pollen from sediment samples, and pollen sampling at archaeological sites.

DescriptionAbstract of paper presented at the annual meetings off the Society for American Archeology, 1969. The antiquity of certain sites in north-central Wisconsin may be predicted by the character of associated forest vegetation. The data also justify paleoecological hypotheses relevant to culture historical reconstructions.

Description
Study of the pollen of 4 surface and 41 stratigraphic and archaeological-context sediment samples was undertaken to provide independent evidence of the antiquity of sites LA 11828 and LA 11904, and of the hypothesis the two sites had the same cultural functions. The pollen record suggests the two sites differ in antiquity: the occupation horizon samples from LA 11828 correspond to others that date to the Historic Period, while those from LA 11904 correspond to others that date 1800 - 300 B.C. Palynological differences that are probably indices of seasonality of occupation argue for the sites having different cultural functions.

Description
Unpublished report, 1965.
Study of pollen samples from these two Reeve Phase sites was undertaken excluding Cheno-am and Compositae pollen from the pollen sum. Cross-dating suggests a five-horizon pollen sequence; three horizons are evidenced a both sites, the other two are from samples superimosed on the occupation floors of rooms. Dates between A.D. 1375 and 1490 are suggested for the sequence. Also discusses economically significant pollen types and presents cultural ecological interpretations. Published 1973

Description
Study of 30 surface and 18 archaeological-context pollen samples was undertaken to assess the potential for further archaeological palynology research. Surface sample analysis allows palynological recognition of eight habitat types ranging from dry and cold through wet and moist to dry and warm. Comparison of fossil and modern surface pollen data suggests the character of paleoecological change sequences at 4 sites, a positive potential for inter-site and intra-site relative cross-dating, and a positive potential for inter-regional dating on paleoclimatic grounds.

DescriptionPollen records from 1 surface and 3 archaeological-context samples suggest the two BM II sites are not contemporaneous.
