Figure 8

Spatial organization. Schematic plans of the living floors illustrating the distribution of faunal remains (tawny circles) and stone tools in relation to the hearths. Refitting connections are indicated, the grey cubes denote cores on block, and the markers denote the positions of the lithics that bear diagnostic use-wear or of the faunal remains that yield seasonality information. The outline of the bedrock shelf bounding the infill to the North is given as observed at the elevation of the layers’ surface. The outline of the back wall is given as observed at the top of the sedimentary infill, prior to excavation, and, approximately (as inferred from the concave configuration displayed in the J > I, L > M, and N > M stratigraphic profiles), at the layers’ surface (the long-dash line). The horizontal distribution of the items in Refits #45 (two way) and #47 (one way) are shown separately to illustrate the connection between the III-i/j2 and III-i/j3 clusters of the III-i/j2-3 occupation event.
