Laying the Foundation for a Fremont Phytolith Typology Using Select Plant Species Native to Utah County Madison Natasha Mercer Pearce A thesis submitted to the faculty of Brigham Young University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Michael T. Searcy, Chair James R. Allison Terry Briggs Ball Department of Anthropology Brigham Young University Copyright © 2017 Madison Natasha Mercer Pearce All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Laying the Foundation for a Fremont Phytolith Typology Using Select Plant Species Native to Utah County Madison Natasha Mercer Pearce Department of Anthropology, BYU Master of Arts Archaeobotanical evidences for the presence of wild plants at Fremont archaeological sites are numerous. However, little can be positively argued for why those plants are present, if they were used by site inhabitants, and how they were used. Additionally, there are likely several wild plants that were used but that do not appear in the archaeobotanical record as pollen or macrobotanicals, the two most commonly identified plant remains. I argue that it is possible to provide better interpretations for how and why the Fremont used plants by researching how their historic counterparts, the Goshute, Shoshone, Ute, and Southern Paiute, used the same plants that are identified at prehistoric sites. I further argue that a phytolith typology for Fremont archaeology can provide more insight into prehistoric plant use. I demonstrate its utility through a phytolith analysis of ground stone tools from Wolf Village, a Fremont site in Utah County. Keywords: ethnobotany, Fremont, phytoliths, Utah County, Goshute, Shoshone, Ute, Paiute, Wolf Village, ground stone tools. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to acknowledge my committee, the botanists and gardeners who helped me identify plants, and my family and friends. I would like thank Michael Searcy who, when I approached him in August 2013 as a very stressed and vexed Master’s student in the Environmental Science program, cleared the way for my application and acceptance in an unprecedented manner into the Department of Anthropology. I’d also like to thank him for being my friend in Kanab in 2010. I’d like to thank James Allison for letting me pursue this project; his trust and sagacious apprehension. I would especially like to thank Terry B. Ball for being so welcoming when he first opened his office door to a student he had never met before. I am grateful for all his guidance and positive encouragement. I am grateful for funds received for this research from the Charles Redd Center and the Anthropology Department. Research funds came from the Summer Award for BYU Upper Division and Graduate Students and the Shallit Grant. I would like to thank Casey from Central Utah Garden, Robert Johnson from the BYU Herbarium, Heidi, Lindsey, Neal, and Fritz from Red Butte Gardens, Tony and Esther from Thanksgiving Point, and Kim and Gail from Sego Lily Gardens. I am grateful for Bradley Geary for allowing me to use his Nikon Optiphot 2 light microscope, and for Mike Standing in the McDonald microscopy lab. I would also like to thank Brooks B. Britt and Loreen Allphin for always believing in me. I am indebted to my husband for all his support, for listening to my crazy ideas, and for baking me cookies. I am grateful for my two children and the perspective they brought when times were tough. I am grateful for my mother for editing all my drafts. I am also grateful for all my babysitters: Tess, Lynn, Emily, Chloe, Jessica, Kara, Savannah, Britney, Aly, Izzy, Zoe, Kim, Chanae, Danielle, Miranda, April, and Kari. Finally, I am grateful for my God. I wouldn’t be in this program if He did not inspire me to be here. I would not have made it this far without His help.

  • Literature Cited
    Literature Cited Robert W. Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volumes 19, 20, and 21, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treatments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the forms recommended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). When those forms are abbre- viated, as most are, cross references to the corresponding full serial titles are interpolated here alphabetically by abbreviated form. In nomenclatural citations (only), book titles are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in F. A. Stafleu and R. S. Cowan (1976–1988) and F. A. Stafleu and E. A. Mennega (1992+). Here, those abbreviated forms are indicated parenthetically following the full citations of the corresponding works, and cross references to the full citations are interpolated in the list alphabetically by abbreviated form. Two or more works published in the same year by the same author or group of coauthors will be distinguished uniquely and consistently throughout all volumes of Flora of North America by lower-case letters (b, c, d, ...) suffixed to the date for the second and subsequent works in the set. The suffixes are assigned in order of editorial encounter and do not reflect chronological sequence of publication. The first work by any particular author or group from any given year carries the implicit date suffix “a”; thus, the sequence of explicit suffixes begins with “b”. Works missing from any suffixed sequence here are ones cited elsewhere in the Flora that are not pertinent in these volumes.

  • Reproductive Ecology of Astragalus Filipes, a Great Basin
    REPRODUCTIVE ECOLOGY OF ASTRAGALUS FILIPES, A GREAT BASIN RESTORATION LEGUME by Kristal M. Watrous A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE in Biology Approved: ________________________ _______________________ James H. Cane Edward W. Evans Major Professor Committee Member ________________________ _______________________ Eugene W. Schupp Byron R. Burnham Committee Member Dean of Graduate Studies UTAH STATE UNIVERSITY Logan, Utah 2010 ii ABSTRACT Reproductive Ecology of Astragalus filipes, a Great Basin Restoration Legume by Kristal M. Watrous, Master of Science Utah State University, 2010 Major Professor: Dr. James H. Cane Department: Biology Astragalus filipes Torrey ex. A. Gray (Fabaceae) is being studied and propagated for use in rangeland restoration projects throughout the Great Basin. Restoration forbs often require sufficient pollination services for seed production and persistence in restoration sites. Knowledge of a plant’s breeding biology is important in providing pollination for maximal seed set. Reproductive output from four manual pollination treatments (autogamy, geitonogamy, xenogamy, and distant xenogamy) was examined in a common garden. Pod set, seed set, and seed germination were quantified for each of the treatments. Seed set from four wild populations was compared to that of an openly visited common garden array. A. filipes was found to be self-compatible, but to benefit greatly from outcrossing. Less seed germinated from distantly outcrossed treatments than for any other treatment, indicating possible outbreeding depression. Common garden plants set less seed per pod than any wild population, possibly due to a depauperate pollinator guild in the common garden. iii Bees were surveyed at wild A. filipes populations to identify common pollinators.

  • Mountain Plants of Northeastern Utah
    MOUNTAIN PLANTS OF NORTHEASTERN UTAH Original booklet and drawings by Berniece A. Andersen and Arthur H. Holmgren Revised May 1996 HG 506 FOREWORD In the original printing, the purpose of this manual was to serve as a guide for students, amateur botanists and anyone interested in the wildflowers of a rather limited geographic area. The intent was to depict and describe over 400 common, conspicuous or beautiful species. In this revision we have tried to maintain the intent and integrity of the original. Scientific names have been updated in accordance with changes in taxonomic thought since the time of the first printing. Some changes have been incorporated in order to make the manual more user-friendly for the beginner. The species are now organized primarily by floral color. We hope that these changes serve to enhance the enjoyment and usefulness of this long-popular manual. We would also like to thank Larry A. Rupp, Extension Horticulture Specialist, for critical review of the draft and for the cover photo. Linda Allen, Assistant Curator, Intermountain Herbarium Donna H.
