AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
The author discusses the difficulties inherent in pollen analysis. The village of Zawi Chemi lies in a dry steppe zone with few trees. Leroi-Gourhan identifies in the stratigraphy changes in the type and variety of plant vegetation starting with a few varities dominated by Chenopodia to its replacement in a later phase by a greater variety of Composite type plants. She poses the question whether the change was due to climate or by human cultivation techniques.
