- Description:
- This image shows a dark, circular stain that proved to be a Seneca-era post (Post Mold 77) when it was first exposed after removal of overlying plow-mixed soil. The post lay about 28 inches (70 cm) west of the wall of the vestibule/entryway to House 3, meaning it probably was an outdoor post. The stain is just to the right of the black-and-white north arrow. The dark triangle of soil in the upper right corner of the test unit is the traces of a 20th century pipe trench.
