Things you need to know about Building s before you use the data:
The entire site was carefully hand-troweled and screens were not used for artifact recovery.
Measurements are in feet and tenths of feet.
Building s was excavated using the "Wheeler Box" excavation system of 8-by-8 foot quadrats with 2-foot balks. Unit size varies from 8-by-8 foot and 2-by-2 foot quadrats to 2-by-8 foot quadrats.
The Building s site was impacted by activity related to the installation of 20th-century parking lots, but not to the same extent as the adjacent Building r and Building t sites. The northern portion of the foundation and floor surface of Building s was destroyed by construction, but a significant part of the foundation remained in the southern section of the structure.
