Roadmap Village (LA 45157) - Unit 106 Summary

Unit 106 is a test unit excavated at Roadmap Village (LA 45157) during the 2012 field season of the Mogollon Prehistoric Landscapes Project. The unit is in an extramural area located west of the most western roomblock within Roadmap Village. This unit placement was chosen for two reasons: (1) recover refuse associated with the roomblock that forms the western edge of the small plaza for relative dating and determining the activities associate with the western roomblock; and (2) determine the depth of B horizon in this portion of the site. Excavations revealed layers of cultural refuse that deposited over a layer of argillitic clay associated with the B horizon that underlies the site.
