Dating of Midden
Secondary refuse associated with the use or occupation of Block 100. Most of the diagnostic sherds recovered from this context reflect deposition in the Basketmaker III period, although some diagnostic Pueblo II pottery was also recovered. It is unclear if this secondary refuse is associated with a habitation in either the Basketmaker III or Pueblo II periods; it could be the result of intensive processing activities nearby.
