- Description:
- This image shows a cross section of Post Mold 22, a possible small Seneca-era post, at the White Springs site; the south half of the soil stain has already been removed. The cross-section suggests that a small post of about 3.5 inches (9 centimeters) diameter was inserted into a dug-out hole about 8 inches (20 centimeters) across. The post and hole only extended about 2 inches (5 centimeters) below the bottom of the plow-mixed soil. This feature was located within the interpreted footprint of White Springs House 4.
