Caption: Marker detail: Recent excavation focused on the oldest pad of the fort
Additional Description: Recent excavation focused on the oldest pad of the fort, outlined in blue in the lower right corner. Military occupancy expanded beyond the old fort walls. The actual military layout is unknown.

Archaeologists use grids as reference points for the precise location of found objects. This grid was used to measure the wood remains of the south fortification wall.

Adobe brick pavement was found on the backside of the west palisade wall. It is undetermined if the brick was a walkway or part of a fallen wall.
