ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1969
Description

Pilot study of the pollen of 2 modern and 7 archaeological-context sediment samples suggests larger archaeological-context samples are required for analysis but pollen preservation is not problematic.

Phytogeography as a Survey Technique in Wisconsin

ContributorsSchoenwetter, James (Author)
Created1969
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.

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.
