<br />Table 14 Archaeological expectations for food consumption and subsistence-related floral and
<br />faunal resources at Hispanic and AngloAmerican occupations, 1860-1890
<br />Hispanic New Mexican Subsistence (1860-1890) AngloAmerican Subsistence (1860-1890)
<br />food Consumption
<br />. clay vessels, i.e. bowls, plates, and cups (Dick 1963:4-7;
<br />1968:77) ceramics, i.e. plates, cups, bowls, serving dishes, ale., a high

<br /> . tin cans (miscellaneous foods-see discussion of food storage
<br /> anifacrs above for attribute breakdown) (Guthrie 1985:90;
<br /> Earles et al. 1987:91; Carrillo 1990, 1986)
<br />Subsistence-related Floral and Faunal Resources

<br />Butler and S. A. Chomko 1985, personal communicauon to the
<br />junror author])
<br />. seeds, including wm, whea4 beans, squash, and chili
<br />(domesticates), and other non-domesticated plants, such as
<br />gooseberry, golden currant, and wax currant (Margaret A. Van
<br />Ness 1985, p. c. to the junior author)

<br />' National Register Evaluation
<br />SLA7186 has the potential to address the research considerations outlined above concerning
<br />' the early history of settlement in the Trinidad area, in particular as it relates to the mining industry.
<br />Additionally, the role of the early Hispanic New Mexican settlers is one that can be addressed both
<br />historically and archaeologically. Both the historical and archaeological implications of these early
<br />' settlers are only recently being recognized as a significant source of information for the
<br />understanding of the history of the region. The data from SLA7 ] 86 can serve to provide relevant
<br />information to these newly emerging concerns.
<br />Based on the information presented above, SLA7186 is recommended to be eligible for the
<br />National Register of Historic Places. The National Register eligibility assessment takes into account
<br />' the Colorado Historical Society RP3 context themes as indicated in the previous discussion.
