| Description | Continued excavation of "pit" area. Soil is darker, more burnt looking than 5218 above. Also occasional small patches of very orange soil -- perhaps iron deposits in soil? Similar bits of pottery and shells. Mortar/plaster bits scattered throughout. Found small gypsum slab. Reached the bottom of two large blocks that form the N and W boundaries of this SU. Soil at base of blocks was much looser. Hit bedrock in nearly all of this SU except for small portion that became too difficult to excavate. It will have to be removed when the surrounding area is taken down to this level. |
