Abstract
Etzanoa, also known as the Cowley County Country Club Site (14C03), was occupied by the Ancestral Wichita throughout the Great Bend Aspect, Lower Walnut Focus (approx. 1425-1700 CE). Wichita State University has been excavating a portion of the site with a high density of domestic features, especially storage pits, since 2017. Utilizing geoarchaeological flotations of samples from surface to 120 centimeter-deep profile, this project intends to identify areas of anthropogenic activity and stratigraphic variation. Through the analysis of these recovered microbotanical and material remnants, researchers are better enabled to understand the depositional history of the locale.
