buried, within the pueblo. Externally one may still see where the 

 original second-type wall was abutted by foundations prepared for 

 an extensive fourth-type addition and where the present fourth-type 

 replacement was introduced after plans for that addition had been 

 abandoned (pis. 43, upper; 44, right). 



Although the original second-type masonry outside Room 297B 

 and its next-door neighbor was replaced by the present fourth-type 

 veneer, their inside stonework remained second-type at its very best 

 (pi. 29, left). However, in the unnumbered and unexcavated room 

 next beyond, immediately north of Room 86, third-type masonry re- 

 placed the original second-type, in the second story if not in the first 

 (pi. 22, upper). That third-type replacement was part of an extensive 

 Late Bonitian reconstructional program that began in Rooms 86, 78, 

 and 71 and, spreading east, eliminated perhaps 20 2-story houses of 

 second-type masonry which, previously, had displaced an estimated 

 30 Old Bonitian dwellings and storerooms. 



In his description of Room 86, Pepper (1920, p. 289) makes it 

 clear this Old Bonitian dwelling had been appropriated by the Late 

 Bonitians and remodeled to their own liking. The east end, as seen 

 in his figure 123, consists of dressed blocks of sandstone with second- 

 type chinking and the adjoining south side likewise was "new." Stone- 

 work at the west end was composed of large flat stones, typically Old 

 Bonitian, and remains so today (pi. 22, upper). 



Room 78 likewise was altered at the pleasure of Late Bonitian 

 architects. The Old Bonitians had planned and built a crescent-shaped 

 pueblo and the north and south sides of Rooms 71 and 78 curved 

 south in continuation of their plan (fig. 3). Pepper's figure 108 

 shows a second-type east end in Room 78, as in 86, and the adjoining 

 half of its south wall was obviously built in merely to straighten the 

 convexity of the Old Bonitian original. Late Bonitian architects 

 sought both to widen the Old Bonitian crescent and to surround it. 

 Hence their alteration of first-type stonework in Rooms 86, 78, and 

 71 and the presence of second-type masonry on abandoned founda- 

 tions subfloor in nearby houses. 



In the unnumbered room north of 86, third-type masonry has 

 replaced the original, of second-type. As I read the record, that 

 second-type original was part of a Late Bonitian replacement pro- 

 gram that continued from Room 297 southeast to Rooms 62 and 70 

 and adjacent structures, and thence across the pueblo to the remains 

 of second-type masonry buildings beneath the floors of Rooms 25, 

 106, and 336 (fig. 4). That all this was subsequently supplanted by
