Description
Argues that the canons of evidence that apply to artifactual evidence of prehistoric behavior patterns are sometimes distinct from those that apply to non-artifactual evidence, and the logic and archaeological value of the latter is not less simply because it is different. The essay is intended to instruct and sensitise archaeologists to this issue as much as it is to allay concern that the pollen evidence for Archaic maize cultivation at the Koster site may not be credible. 49 p.

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 site, and assessment of theories of the Anthropology of Southwestern Archaic populations.

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 in a paleoenvironment quite distinct from that presently occurring in this district.

Description
Report of a project integrating magnetic minerals analysis and pollen studies of two Cheshire meres. Landuse reconstructions for the Peckforton Hills district from the third millenium B.C to the 18th century A.D. explain the apparant lack of archaeological remains of populations related to the Bronze and Iron Age occupations of Beeston Castle and Maiden Castle hillforts. 35 p. Research results summarized in Schoenwetter, J., 1982, "Environmental Archaeology of the Peckforton Hills," "Cheshire Archaeological Bulletin." 8:10-11.
