Nonstructure 110, not further specified

About this Nonstructure

No Surface
No Masonry

General Location

Nonstructure 110 is located in the southwest portion of the site.

Specific Location

Nonstructure 110 underlies Nonstructure 108 and 109, and is southwest of Structure 111.

Selection Criteria

Nonstructure 110 is used to investigate a possible feature.

Use

Nonstructure 110 is used to define the deposit which comprises the use-surface, Nonstructure 109. Nonstructure 110 is a mixture of redeposited native sediment, charcoal, and calcium-carbonate. No artifacts were observed in this deposit. The top of Nonstructure 110, is an extramural use-surface, and is Nonstructure 109.

Abandonment

Nonstructure 110 was no longer used subsequent to the Pueblo II period. Nonstructure 108 was deposited right over the top of Nonstructure 110, so the Nonstructure 110 deposit did not lay open to the air for long.

Postabandonment Process

Nonstructure 108 rests directly on top of Nonstructure 110. Nonstructure 108 was likely deposited on top of Nonstructure 110 through a combination of cultural and natural factors. And most recently, was affected by mechanical disturbance.

Dating of Construction

Based on the artifacts, Nonstructure 110 likely dates from the Pueblo II period.

Dating of Remodeling

Indeterminate. Nonstructure 110 is redeposited sediment, so it may have been remodeled. But the artifacts speak to it dating from the Pueblo II period, and any earlier evidence of Nonstructure 110 being remodeled prior to Pueblo II, is gone.

Dating of Abandonment

Nonstructure 110 was no longer used after the Pueblo II period.

Dating of Midden

Not applicable.

Dating of Reuse

Not applicable.
