ABSTRACT
Overview Deep post holes that formed an arc in the southern portion of Area 1 were, at first, anticipated to be those of a Saladoid malocca, similar to one or more structures identified at the Golden Rock site in St Eustatius (Schinkel, 1992; Versteeg & Effert, 1987). Late Ostionoid radiocarbon dates returned on the Tutu posts, however, forced revised interpretations and assisted identification of late Ostionoid Structure 7. Because Soil Mound No. 4 obscured the southern portion of the structure, only post holes of the northern periphery could be investigated.
