- Context
- Feature 2, a stone circle with an interior hearth, located ca. 10 m S of Feature 1. Feature 2 meas. ca. 4 m in dia. and consists of a dozen rounded granitic rocks arranged in a circle on top of exposed bedrock. The fire hearth in the center of the circle contained FCR frags. on the surface, 4 mano frags., 2 flakes, and several unaltered cobbles found nearby. Just outside the circle, to the NW, is a small fir tree, around the base of which are dead tree limbs that once might have formed part of a small habitation structure. A shallow hearth, enclosed within a small pocket of soil was found in the circle's interior. The S half was removed, where 30 flakes were recovered, plus charred Cheno-ams. Flakes were mainly chert, but some obsidian also present, along with bone frags. Charcoal is from Feature 2 [presumably the hearth within the structure and not the outer hearth.]
