SMITHSONIAN REPORT. 1956. — GAZIN 



1. The wall of the excavation as it neared the spring in 1951. Seepage at this point was 

 particularly annoying. The bone layer in this vicinity was approximately 7 feet beneath 

 the surface and resting on a slightly more consolidated bedrock of decomposed volcanic 

 material that, in contrast to the overlying mud, appeared to be undisturbed. 



2. Our native crew at the close of the 1951 season. Most, though not all, of these were the 

 men we started with. They are standing over a part of the excavation after it had been 

 filled and the ground leveled so as to prevent the accumulation of stagnant water, im- 

 portant in mosquito control.
