General Location Central portion of site.
Specific Location Northwest portion of Block 100; within 1-x-1-m unit 513N 482E.
Selection Criteria Fourth 1-x-1-m unit randomly selected for excavation in Block 100. Exposed Nonstructure 132.
Use
It is unknown how this study unit functioned. The artifact density was low and therefore, not a midden deposit.
Abandonment
This area was abandoned by the late Pueblo II period.
Postabandonment Processes
After Nonstructure 132 fell out of use, an extramural surface (Nonstructure 108) was in use above these deposits.
Date range 6 (A.D. 1060–1140)
Dating of Construction
Based on pottery data and superpositioning, this area was probably used during the late Pueblo II period. Nonstructure 108 is above Nonstructure 132 which dates from the Pueblo III period.
