Another two sherds (MDC.1.74 and MDC.1.104) were found
northwest of the Circle in Units 4 and 5, respectively.

Cord Marked

Eight cord-marked sherds were identified. George Luer
identified some of these as possibly West Florida Cord Marked
(Willey 1949:388-389). All were found in Block 1 (Figure 21).
Specimen MDC.1.631.9 was found in Unit 63, Level 2 (Figure
22c). This sherd is characterized by mica inclusions in the
paste. Another sherd, MDC.1.601.9, was recovered from Unit
53, Level 4. Sherd MDC.1.161.24 was found in Block 2, Unit
8, Level 8. Four sherds (MDC. 1.395.3}—three of which fit
together—were found in Block 1, Unit 22. One larger sherd
(MDC.1.594.4) measuring 5.9 cm by 4.9 cm was recovered
from Unit 49, Level 3 (Figure 22a).

Belle Glade Plain

This pottery type is associated with the Belle Glade Culture
of Lake Okeechobee. It is characterized as a plainware, with a
sand-tempered and spiculate paste, often with the exterior
shaved. This type is most often associated with Glades HI
occupations in southeast Florida. Only a single specimen
(FBAR.1.100.5) was found.

Miscellaneous Incised / Zoned Punctated

Eleven non-local incised/ zoned punctated sherds that could
not easily be assigned to types were present (Figures 21 and
23). Some of these are suggestive of various Florida Gulf Coast
types, but they are not classified in this study.

One sherd (MDC.1.220.3) has possible Pinellas paste
(Figure 23c). It was recovered from Block 2, Unit 11, Level 9.
The sherd has an intricate, well executed design of angled lines
and punctated zones.

Two possible Sarasota Incised sherds were found. Speci-
men MDC.1.52.7 is a zoned-punctated sherd decorated on
chalky ware (Figure 22d). This sherd was a surface find. A
second sherd (MDC.1.1043.1) also was found.

Three unclassified sherds have some similarities in design
(Figure 23d, f). Each sherd has a linear recessed groove on the
exterior surface with punctations both in the groove and on the
adjacent field. Specimen MDC.1.59.1 was recovered from Unit
1, Level 3, near the outside of the northwest circumference of
the Circle. A second sherd (MDC.1.806.3) was found in basin
Feature 457 that straddles Units 45 and 46. A third sherd
(FBAR.1.201.5) was found during the FBAR investigations east
of the Circle in Basin MM.

Specimen MDC. 1.63.7 was found in Unit 1 ata depth of 5.2
feet above NGVD 1929 (Figure 23e). George Luer notes its
similarity to various St. Simons types (see Williams 1977:145,
