Selkirk Structures from the Spruce Point site, Western Ontario

Grace Rajnovich's (1983) thesis describes excavation of two Selkirk (Late Woodland) habitation structures at the Spruce Point site (DjKq-1) in the Kenora District of western Ontario.  The structures were defined by a color and texture contrast between the interior and exterior sediments.  Both had interior features.  Neither structure was completely exposed.  Rajnovich provided inferred outlines of the structures.  She estimated their dimensions to have been about 4m in width x 6 or 7m in length.  The plan view of Structure A is shown to the right.  The plan view of Structure B is here.

Above: Structure A (from Figure 8 of Rajnovich 1983:98).  This will be Structure 2235 in the database.
