- Feature 42, Block A, a dish shaped roasting pit, meas. 0.76 x 1.0 m, and a depth of 14 cm below the prehistoric ground surface. It had a partial slab lining, with evidence of heavy burning and oxidation at its base. Stratified fill. Lowest layer was the remains of fuel wood and FCR weighing 1 kg. This was covered by a thin layer of sand, either intentionally laid or blown in during a period of disuse. Above this was dark charcoal stained soil. Sagebrush, saltbush, juniper, and greasewood charcoal were identified. Also 1 charred deer sized bone.
