Interpretations

Interpretations
2020-06-03 BrittanyProffitt

During post-excavation study, this feature was reinterpreted as a possible leveling fill belonging to one of the beaten earth floors of the Phase 1A building, based on its location and stratigraphic relationships.

2016-07-16 Morgan Flottmeier

The original interpretation by Morgan was deleted due to a database glitch. It read along the following lines: The flat deposition of pottery in this SU suggests that it is related to a surface of some kind.

2016-07-16 J Troy Samuels

This deposit is likely related to abandonment activity within the Area C house or floor leveling.
