Context
Wood from the lower 5 cm of fill, Hearth A-2, in a shallow basin near the center of a ring of stones ('wickiup' ?). Hearth meas. 37 x 56 cm, 7 cm deep. Filled with charcoal and sediments. Base with thermally oxidized. No artifacts in the depression, although a cobble handstone/hammerstone was on the edge of the hearth. The excavator interprets this as suggesting that seeds, roots, dried meat, or ocher were processed.
