. Bulletin. Ethnology. REFRIG. SHCSE, MEAT, ETC. SHOWCASES NOTIONS DRY GOODS BOARD "BULL PEN". APPROX. SCALE ac§yo â FiGUKB 3.âShonto store layout. age height above the floor of 11 feet. The cantilevered roof is par- tially supported by three interior posts (fig. 3). Interior layout of the store is shown in figure 3. Three of the room's four walls are covered with stock shelves from floor to ceiling, and are paralleled by counters and/or showcases. In addition most of the larger hardware stock and harness equipment is suspended from nails in the ceiling. Very large items of hardware and furniture, such as stoves, rollaway beds, and water drums are likely to be set out on the bullpen floor at the foot of the wall. Shonto Trading Post, like most of its neighbors, always has a cluttered appearance, giving the im- pression that every available inch of space has been utilized for merchandise display and storage. Wagons, wagon parts, and plows are kept in the yard behind the store. Extra stocks are stored in the warehouse room adjacent to the store (fig. 1, C). Because of limited space here additional merchan- dise stocks must usually be kept in the series of hogans (G) which were built originally as tourist cabins. (One hogan, H, served as quarters for the writer and his wife in 1955-56.) Hazardous liquids are stored in the old pumphouse (F). Thanks to its abortive history as a tourist lodge Shonto is un- usually well equipped with living quarters. The original family quarters (D), adjoining the store, are now used only by the owner and his family on their infrequent visits to Shonto (see below). Two stone cabins (E) and one hogan (H) serve as quarters for the resident.
