Old Mobile (1MB94) Structure 04, Mobile County, Alabama.
Summary
Structure 4 at the Old Mobile site (1MB94) was first noticed as a preserved earthen floor in the woods in the western, unplowed portion of the townsite. A test excavation in 1991-1992 encountered a modern logging road disturbance immediately east of the structure floor. Excavation of the building site has continued in 2013. The structure was built in the poteaux-en-terre style. There is evidence of an interior brick hearth.
