Context
Wood from Hearth K, located near the center of the basin house (Feature 5). It meas. 80 x 55 cm, 8-18 cm deep; asymmetrical in shape. Part of the heart had been purposely filled with sandy silt prior to construction of a fire in the hearth. The remainder of the basin contained 5-7 cm of gray-brown ashy fill, numerous charcoaal chunks. Several basalt slabs lay atop the ashy fill (cooking surface?). On top of the slabs was a circle of basalt pieces sloping toward the center. The majority of floor artifacts were clustered around Feature K and feature N.
