This photograph shows the trench dug to expose the possible palisade area at the White Springs Site (Trench 2) fully cleaned to show cultural features, facing northwest. The black-painted markers represent the locations of all dark soil stains located during excavation of the entire trench; some represent Seneca-era features, some 19th-20th century Euroamerican features, and some are non-cultural stains caused by tree roots and rodent burrows. Larger markers are associated with larger stains. The picture shows re-excavated units from 2014 and Extensions A through F, but not Extension G which was dug on the last day of the excavation (10 July 2015). Kurt Jordan, Archaeologist
