Implications of Archaeological Palynology, at Bethsaida, Israel
Palynological research at Bethsaida, Israel, was designed to test conventional wisdom regarding pollen preservation in Levantine archaeological deposits, and to demonstrate the potential of palynological data for interpretations of behavior. Control procedures that detected an error in the normal pollen-extraction process allowed us to fulfill the first objective. The latter objective was achieved by application of an interdisciplinary approach t…
Implications of Archaeological Palynology at Bethsaida, Israel
Landuse reconstruction at the founding settlement of Las Vegas, Nevada
Lessons from An Alternative View
Kent V. Flannery's recent model of the development of early agriculture in Oaxaca rejects interpretations of ecological change suggested by palynological research undertaken as an aspect of the multidisciplinary research program he initiated in 1965. It also rejects the palynological conclusion that a maize-like plant was cultivated in Oaxaca prior to and throughout the Naquitz Phase. This paper develops the position that Flannery's alternative i…

Pollen Records of Guila Naquitz Cave
Pollen recovered from the sediments of Guila Naquitz Cave, Oaxaca, is compared with pollen representing modern ecological patterns in the Valley of Oaxaca. This allows the reconstruction of both vegetational and climatic patterns for the period of preceramic occupancy of the cave: roughly, 6000-8000 B.C. A generally cooler yet more xeric climate apparently prevailed, as had been suggested by faunal analyses at Coxcatlan Cave near Tehuacan, Puebla…
The Prehistory of the Southeastern Maya Periphery
Archaeological pollen analysis of sediment samples from asto village sites
IntroductionPollen analysis is a paleobotanical technique which has a number of archaeological applications. Traditionally, pollen analysis is utilized to date Quaternary sediments to time horizons which are identified by characteristic pollen frequencies. If the sediments derive from an archaeological context, or if they can be correlated with an archaeological context in some way, a “pollen date” may be applied to the archaeological record. Ano…
Archaeological Pollen Studies of the Colorado Plateau
The proposition is advanced that archaeologists are not justified in considering pollen analysis a technique of investigation restricted to the biological or earth scientist. This is shown not to be true in theory because of the nature of the technique itself. Comparison of pollen studies of samples from archaeological proveniences on the Colorado Plateau serves to illustrate the fact that research designs in pollen analysis do actually allow col…

of designs, but without regard to type, site, or chronology; for example, all sherds bearing squiggly hatch, or ticked lines or pendent triangles were put into separate piles and then counted. Then she re-sorted the same sherds by site, by type, and by chronology and then separated these groups into lots bearing similar or identical elements of design. These were counted, percentages derived, and graphs drawn. Thus the study was "quantified." Mis…
