Nonstructure 201, extramural surface
About this Nonstructure
General Location
Block 200, west edge of site, west-northwest of plaza, where Block 200 meets the site-enclosing wall.
Specific Location
Just north of, and adjacent to, the northeast wall of Structure 202, at the north end of the block. "Straddles" a doorway in the site-enclosing wall.
Selection Criteria
Use
These extramural surfaces were probably used by residents of the surrounding architectural blocks during passage through the associated doorway or gap in the site-enclosing wall; few openings were exposed through this enclosing wall during excavations at the site.
Abandonment
Abandoned when the surrounding architectural blocks were abandoned, or perhaps when the village was abandoned.
Postabandonment Process
Upper portions of the site-enclosing wall collapsed; sediment accumulated naturally.
