Abstract
Data recovery investigations at a buried upland site in Morgan County, Illinois documented a late Middle Archaic component. Five hearths were documented and represent three hearth-related activity areas. Three additional activity areas were defined: freehand core reduction area, bipolar core reduction area, and a general dumping/disposal area. The activity areas appear to be tethered to the hearths. A single occupation is indicated by soil micromorphology, refits, radiocarbon dates, and spatial data. Analysis of the recovered materials indicated that the site represents a residential base. This article summarizes the results of the analysis of site structure.
