- Description:
- This image shows a cross-section of a shallow, fire-related pit (Feature 44) at the White Springs site, early in its excavation. The east side of the feature has already been removed. While it is difficult to make out in this picture, the profile shows fairly consistent dark soil with charcoal. Two postmold-sized stains (Post Mold 60 and Post Mold 79) eventually were discovered extending below this pit, although it is not certain whether Feature 44 predates the posts or vice-versa. The separate pit to the left of the image is from the excavation of Post Mold 56.
