Author(s): Jody C. Voelker; Ola T. Evanitsky

Year: 1993

Summary

LA37691 is a small roomblock located on a narrow terrace above the south fork of the Palomas Creek. The site was first excavated in 1983 by Dr. Margaret Nelson and students from the University of New Mexico. "The 1983 survey estimated the site size at 130m X l00m and identified two roomblocks (the smaller with 1-2 rooms and the larger with 4-5 rooms), two depressions, one hearth, and lithic and ceramic scatter" (Norvell 1993). During the 1993 season three rooms, designated Units 10, 11 and 12, have been excavated at LA37691. Units 10, 11 and 12 are part of the larger roomblock identified in the 1983 survey. Units 10 and 11 are two of three rooms in a linear roomblock oriented approximately north-south. Unit 12 is adjacent to Unit 11 and these two units shares a common wall. The west wall of Unit 12 is also the east wall of Unit 11. Unit 12 is a three-sided room. This report summarizes the results of excavations of Unit 12 at this site.
