Questionable dating as both Puerto Moorin and Tomaval are represented, but latter probably dates structures. and shape to others of the Tomaval and post-Puerto Moorin Periods, suggest the Tomaval dating for the visible structures. Y-211^.—This site is located on another sloping spur or ridge on the face of the hills of Huacapongo-South (Quad E-2, northeast). It is similar in type to V-213 and lies about 350 meters to the west of it. There is another spur between V-214 and V-213 which is capped by an unnumbered and unsurveyed site. The house platforms and stone room foundations of V-214 are ar- ranged terracelike, one above the other (fig. 65). The buildings are not quite contiguous as a small gap is usually left from terrace to terrace. As in V-213, the rooms or walled terraces are rectangular. They range from 12 by to 3 by 3 meters. Most of the larger rooms are placed with their maximum dimension running across the crest. Several raised platforms or banquettes were noted. In two cases these platforms or banquettes were split by deep, narrow little passageways. In one large room there were several small rooms or cubicle divisions. The ceramic situation here is also comparable to V-213. A rela- tively few sherds date as Tomaval (rating: average) while over 100 are placed as Early Puerto Moorin. By analogy with V-213, and with other sites, I interpret the buildings as Tomaval Period. In the quebrada down over the edge of the crest to the east of V-214, there are a series of house foundations of rock. I sketched some of.
