Context
Sample appears to be from the fill of Structure 2, a shallow round basin house truncated by slope wash and arroyo entrenchment. Originally thought to be 6-8 cm in dia., with a possible floor 5 to 15 cm bmgs. Possible floor area of 28 to 50 sq m. Floor is unplastered, but heavily oxidized. Structure fill was slope wash, frags. of charcoal and burned adobe, with small twig and brush impressions. No evidence of horizontally cribbed log construction. One of the pits in the Structure is a bell shaped storage pit. Two other features thought to be assoc. with Structure 2, Feature 19 and 15, are radiocarbon dated.
