Rock feature occupying a portion of Component VIIA (see Figs. 5 and 19). As can be seen in the profile, VIIA grew laterally, from south to north in the area of our excavation. The rock feature occupied one of these overlapping lenses. VIIA, taken as a whole, may (a) have simply been a rubbish tip filled with ash from hearths and earth ovens elsewhere on the site, (b) an accumulation occupying a shallow swale locally used for earth ovens and barbecues, or (c) an enormous pit used for this purpose. Alas, we ran out of excavation time. |
Remains, probably of a small earth oven, from the fill above the floor of VIIH. Spring, 1959. |
The same earth oven in the fill of VIIH as seen from above. Spring, 1959. |
Krotovina, a filled rodent burrow, penetrating Stratum V beneath Component VIIB. May 1960. |
