Palynological Records of Joe's Valley Alcove: A Multicomponent Site in Southeastern Utah

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1974
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.

Palynology and Landuse Reconstruction at Tatton Park, Cheshire

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1999
Description
Sediment samples associated with a Mesolithic site on the shore of Tatton Mere contain pollen "downwashed" through the deposits since establishment of a soil on an aeolian dune that developed at the locale in Romano-British times. Application of the method suggested in Schoenwetter, 1990, "Method for the Application of Pollen…

Sediment samples associated with a Mesolithic site on the shore of Tatton Mere contain pollen "downwashed" through the deposits since establishment of a soil on an aeolian dune that developed at the locale in Romano-British times. Application of the method suggested in Schoenwetter, 1990, "Method for the Application of Pollen Analysis in Landscape Archaeology," allows interpretation of the pollen sequence in terms of changes in local landuse. The result is wholly consistant with the sequence of landuses recorded for the locale since the 11th century. Rejected for European publication by reviewers.

Upland Mesolithic Britain: A Systemic Perspective

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1982
DescriptionReports successful extraction of pollen from Mesolithic archaeological site-context deposits at moor locations using swirl flotation technology. Integration with previously obtained pollen records from Central Pennines Mesolithic sites suggests alternative to conventional archaeological interpretation.

An Archaeological Pollen Analysis of Joe’s Valley Alcove

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1981
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.
