ee sor STUTSMAN FOCUS—WHEELER 221 
Fill: Random boulders, and an upper stratum of buff-colored sand and a 
lower stratum of dark sand. The latter was underlain by sterile shale, 
which was excavated to a maximum depth of 0.6 foot below the sand. 
Contents: None. 
Other features: None. 
Preservation: Fair; many boulders dislodged by grazing animals and slope 
wash. 
FEATURE 2 (F2) in XU2;; fig. 37, b. 
Shape: Small, roughly oval; maximum length of depression, 5.2 feet east- 
west; maximum width of depression, 4.1 feet north-south; maximum 
width of surrounding ring, about 1.25 feet. 
Depth: 1.7 feet, measured from a straight-edge laid across the tops of the 
boulders in the surrounding ring. 
Fill: Random boulders and dark sand above sterile shale, which was 
penetrated to a depth of 1.5 feet. 
Contents: A few animal-bone scraps, one charred fruit pit, and some finely- 
divided charcoal. 
Other features: None. 
Preservation: Fair; a few boulders displaced by grazing animals and 
slope wash. 
FEATURE 3 (F3) in XU2; fig. 38, a and 0. 
Shape: Small, subcircular ; diameter of depression, 7.4 feet; maximum width 
of surrounding ring, about 2.0 feet. 
Depth: Generally 2.5 feet, with a central basin-shaped pit between 2.5 and 
2.8 feet. 
Fill: Random boulders and dark sand, from 0.2 to 2.8 feet; clay from 2.3 to 
2.5 feet; shale below 2.5 feet to unknown depth. 
Contents: One phalange and six fragmentary long bones and a tarsal bone 
of a secondary human burial (Burial 2, of indeterminate sex and age), 
found between two boulders surrounding the depression, at a depth of 
0.4 feet; one skull fragment, one mandible, and 197 fragmentary bones 
of a secondary human burial (Burial 1, an adult of uncertain sex), 
uncovered in the central depression at a depth of 2.5 to 2.8 feet (fig. 38, b) ; 
and one broken projectile point, one modified and one unworked fiake, 
48 human-bone fragments, an animal-bone fragment and a bird bone, 
and broken mussel shells, obtained from the matrix between the surface 
and 2.0 feet below the surface. Sticks, 0.2 foot in diameter, found in the 
clay stratum, suggest that some sort of cribwork had been built over the 
basin-shaped pit containing Burial 1. 
Other features: Burials 1 and 2 (secondary human burials), mentioned 
above. 
Preservation: Fair; some boulders displaced by grazing animals and slope 
wash. 
FEATURE 1 (F1) in XU3; fig. 36, B. 
Shape: Small, circular; diameter of depression, 5.3 feet; maximum width 
of surrounding ring, 3.1 feet. 
Depth: Maximum in the depression, 2.7 feet ; maximum in an area adjoining 
the depression on the south, 0.7 foot. 
Fill: An ash lens at a depth of 0.3 foot; refuse-bearing buff-colored sand, 
with random boulders, down to sterile shale.
