NO. I ARCHITECTURE OF PUEBLO BONITO JUDD 91 



Mindeleff in 1887 photographed a fourth example outside and just 

 above Hntel level of the formerly blocked north door to Room 200 

 (pi. 26, upper). Thus three of the four embedded sandstone disks 

 of record occur in second-type Late Bonitian masonry. We did not 

 dislodge one. 



Room 106, correctly described by Pepper (ibid., p. 324) but in- 

 terchanged with Room 23 on Hyde's ground plan (ibid., fig. 155), 

 adjoins Room 25 on the south and the partly razed second-type virall 

 noted subfloor in the northwest corner of the latter continues diago- 

 nally across Room 106 and on approximately the same level, here 

 at a depth of 5 feet 8 inches. Other partially razed second-type 

 masonry was disclosed by our trenches beneath the floors of Room 336 

 and Kiva U and it is reasonable to suppose that still other compara- 

 ble remains lie deeply buried in areas we did not explore. 



Room 336 was built of superior third-type masonry and shortly 

 after completion a 1-inch layer of shale was spread upon the floor 

 to underlie an intermural kiva, 11 feet 8 inches in diameter (pi. 74, 

 lower). Subsequently that kiva was reduced to its lowermost two 

 courses, but at time of construction it crossed a contemporary north- 

 end wall of unknown purpose, and this latter, in turn, crossed an 

 earlier second-type wall paralleling that diagonally subfloor in Room 

 106. At depth of 4 feet 7 inches the floor associated with this Room 

 336 subfloor wall is a foot higher than its counterpart in 106, but 

 the masonry itself continues another foot and a half, to 6 feet. Both 

 walls, the subfloor second-type and the north-end third-type, had 

 been cut through upon construction of the under-floor ventilator duct 

 connected with the short-lived kiva built within the walls and upon 

 the original floor of Room 336. 



Although I did not pursue the subject to a positive conclusion, I 

 believe the partially razed second-type walls subfloor in Rooms 106 

 and 336 were in some way connected with the lower part of the one 

 that separates Kivas U and W. Originally several feet higher, this 

 latter wall still stood 16^ feet at the time of our investigation. Its 

 lower 13 feet was a mixed masonry but predominantly of friable 

 sandstone dressed and chinked after the manner of our second type 

 while the remainder was typically third-type. With no identifiable 

 foundation, the wall was based on an apparent work surface 6 feet 

 2 inches below floor level in nearby Kiva W and 9 feet 5 inches be- 

 low that in Kiva U. 



I may be quite wrong in assuming a relationship between the 

 lower part of this wall and those subfloor in Rooms 106 and 336,
