Oh I just found the reference: Pruning and coppicing of individual berry and hazelnut (Corylus cornuta) bushes was also practiced, both on the coast and in the interior. of the NW (Nancy Turner, Keeping it Living, University of Washington Press). I have a chapter on the Native American use of Sagittaria latifolia in that very same book. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jan Hearthstone" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Wednesday, February 08, 2006 1:36 PM Subject: Pollarding and Coppicing. Dear people, I would like to find out if pollarding and coppicing (a very pertinent topic today in prevention of deforestation) were practiced in prehistory--are there any papers, or what-not, available on the Internet? Were pollarding and coppicing practiced in prehistory of what today is the American SW region?
