Wall Orientation for Outlying Structures at Pueblo la Plata

Part of the Legacies on the Landscape project

Creator(s): Will Russell

Year: 2007

Summary

When project personnel recorded the outlying structures at Pueblo la Plata, reference was made to walls running "north/south" and walls running "east/west". This graph illustrates the variability in precise wall orientation, with black arrows corresponding with walls running "north/south" and red arrows corresponding with walls running "east/west". Results suggest there was no consistent attempt to orient outlying structures to the cardinal directions.
