If the general correlation between lateness oi tune .mil increasing frequency ol beveled type manos is valid, then it would seem Broken K Pueblo would be earlier than Table Rock Pueblo which seems to roughly bracket the 14th century.

A total oi 65 metates was recovered from the Broken K site. Whole examples numbered 45, while fragments accounted tor 2 addi- tional metates The metates were of three basic types: hasin nictates irregular hlock ! stone with a circular, depressed grinding surface: 7 (5 whole examples; 2 fragments); trough type roughly rectangular hlock of stone, grindinj.

It is significant that the majority (77< j I oi the metates are the slab type Rinaldo Martin et ol., 1964b, p. 67) has noted the observed trend of.
