 Photographer: Robert Michael Thompson Date: 10/07/06 Location: N5E6 Field Notes: General regions in pit that run North to South. Region 1 and 2 have consistent layering while region 3 has been disturbed (parking lot construction?). This trend appears to be the case at least through ~30cm. Artifacts found in near surface @ 10-20cm of region 3 in photo such as the pipe bowl are probably dislocated. The absense of consistent layer in region 3 supports this, in additon to the thick layering of packed clay close to surface.
