Profiles show that the top half of the mound was of a darker color than the lower half. A distinct line separated the two kinds of soil. It was not possible to ascertain whether or not the mound was built of different kinds of sand or whether the color was due to seepage. One thing, however, was plain: the whole mound was built at one.
