Nonstructure 106, midden

About this Nonstructure

No Surface
No Masonry

General Location

Eastern portion of the site.

Specific Location

Midden area.

Selection Criteria

To sample potential midden deposits.

Use

Disturbed midden.

Abandonment

Not Applicable

Postabandonment Process

Impacted by plowing.

Dating of Midden

The midden deposits were highly disturbed from bulldozing and plowing activities, so ceramics from Pueblo I-Pueblo III were recovered. Since no structures were left on this site, it is hard to tighten the date range of this midden deposit.

Date Range

1 (A.D. 900–1100)

Site-Wide Dating
