Feature 2, above, was uncovered in Excavation Units 3-6 in Block 3, Lot 4, which were placed over an area in which relatively high densities of artifacts were recovered on the ground surface in an earlier, walk-over survey of the area. Those excavation units uncovered late nineteenth century deposits, including Feature 2, which consists of a lime slaking pit in which lime plaster and mortar were likely produced by local residents for use in adding plaster and mortar to structures built nearby. |
Feature 8, above, was uncovered in Excavation Unit 3 in Block 3, Lot 5, which was placed in the area of anomaly A4. Feature 8 consists of a post mold that measures about 0.9 x 0.9 feet and is located toward the center of the excavation unit. |
Feature 10 above, was uncovered in Excavation Unit 6 in Block 3, Lot 5, which was placed in the area of anomaly A4. Feature 10 consists of a layer of ash, containing bits of charcoal and metal fragments. Several rocks are located in the southeast corner of the unit and the soil appeared a bit darker and softer in that area. This material may be associated with the feature, or it may be related to a larger undetected feature located adjacent to and southeast of the unit. |
