. Bulletin. Ethnology. La L4 0 R4 PROFILE or 0L2O-OR16 SECTION. 30 40 50 60 PROFILE Of 0L9-93L9 SECTION LEGEND Cjv 17 1 TOP SOIL PROFILE 1 BLACK SOIL SCALE I SHELL 10 8 64 2 0 IC 1 LIGHT CLAY FEET FlGUBE 7. The profile of Rl trench shows the slope of the shell mound, as does the photograph shown in plate 20, a. The profile indicates the diminishing depth from the surface to shell as the elevation of the mound was reached. In two places the clay floors were found at the Rl wall. The small mound of shell rising above the general level at 85R1 is a heap of shells which were foimd piled over a dog skele- ton m the Rl wall at that place. The darker coloring in the shell profile indicates shell concentrations, either as pockets or as sem- blances of stratification. The following table indicates the concen- tration of shells and the presence or absence of univalves and bivalves. The shells were counted in 6-inch squares down the face of the trench at 60R1, the top square being designated by 1.
