"Three elements of the palynology of archeological sites have received
particular attention. First, the history of the plant domestication and
utilization, which was pioneered by Martin and Schoenwetter (1960a). Second,
the palynological investigation of human diet through the analysis of human
feces (coprolites) (Martin and Sharrock, 1964; Kelso ,1971; Williams-Dean,
1978). Third, the palynological investigation of artefacts (Hevly, 1964 p.
86,89; Bohrer, 1968; Bryant and Morris, 1986) and the function of site
features (Schoenwetter, 1962; Hill and Hevly, 1968.)"
