Results and interpretations
- Bedrock: Late Pleistocene limestone (context 1449)

- Facies II: Brown sand and organic layers (contexts 1446, 1444, 1443, and 1441)
- Facies III: Yellow-brown sands with black, organic-rich shell bands (contexts 1442, 1440 to 1427, and 1424)
- Micromorphology: MM5 (context 1437/lens), MM6 (boundary of contexts 1428/1427), MM7 (context 1424)
- Facies IV: Black sandy sediment with shells, bone, and artifacts (contexts 1426, 1425, 1423, 1421, 1420, and 1418)
- Micromorphology: Top MM7 (context 1426) and bottom MM9 (context 1425)
- Facies V: Cemented reddish sandy clayey sediment and middens (contexts 1417, 1419, 1422, 1412, 1408, and 1406)
-- Micromorphology: Top of MM9 (context 1422/potential hearth?)
- Facies VI: Black sandy sediment (contexts 1404 and 1403)
- Facies VII: Farming soil and marginal urban dumps (contexts 1402 to 1400)
