This image shows the "negative impression" of a probable large Seneca-era post (Feature 49) at the White Springs site. A negative impression is what remains after all cultural soil has been scooped out, and it shows what the original edge of the post looked like when it was constructed by the site's residents. Feature 49 consisted of a relatively shallow stain with a rounded profile and a concentration of rocks toward the south end. This looks to have been a large Seneca posthole that was dug out; the post sat to the north and was braced by rocks in the south half of the stain. Kurt Jordan, Archaeologist
