The following sections, measured at various places along the main arroyo, record the character and thickness of the several strata from the top of the bank to its base, and give a record of human relics found therein. Each station is indicated on the accompanying map, figure 1, by its corresponding number.
Section 1
South bank of main arroyo, 200 yards east of expedition camp. No potsherds were recovered in this section but opposite, in the north bank, plain ware of coarse texture was found at a depth of about 12 feet.
At the place on the map marked "Pit House" there was discovered in 1922 a structure partly destroyed by erosion of the arroyo bank. What remained was excavated and studied by Neil M. Judd, who has described it at length (Judd, 1924). It consisted of a single circular room with the middle of its slightly concave floor 12 feet 2 inches below the present surface. The original excavation was 6 feet deep (pl. 6, lower). The builders of this subterranean house lived when the flood plain was 6 feet lower than it now is, and doubtless they or their contemporaries are responsible for the human relics at deeper levels shown in the sections to follow.
Section 2
In a small tributary entering the main arroyo from northwest of Pit House.
Near section 2 and in the same small arroyo, there is a ruined house now almost destroyed by erosion. Its foundations reach to a depth of 8 feet below the surface, yet the walls appear to be quite similar to masonry of the neighboring great pueblos and the potsherds are of both early and late types.
Two alternatives must be considered, either the pit house and this small pueblolike dwelling are contemporaneous, which is unlikely, or, granting that the pit house is older, the pueblo-type dwelling and section 2 are located in a later deposit.
Section 3
Section 3, on the south bank about 300 yards east of the pit house, represents a normal succession of beds. A potsherd at 4 feet below the surface is of undetermined type. Sherds found between depths of 17 feet and 20 feet 6 inches, are of Pit House or older age. This is the greatest depth at which potsherds were found.
Section 4
In the north bank of the main arroyo and near the "store" at southeast corner of Pueblo del Arroyo (pl. 7, lower). The section was measured in the middle of a channel deposit which lies beneath a horizontal clay layer. The deposit itself is 13 feet 5 inches thick at the deepest point exposed, and its base is 15 feet below the level of the adjacent plain. Nearby, in 1877, Jackson found potsherds, bones, and a human skull at a depth of 14 feet, as discussed on page 32.
Section 5
South bank of main arroyo opposite Ruin No. 8 and a short distance east of section 16 (see pp. 29-30). Of special note is a Pueblo III fireplace (pl. 3, right) built when the surface was 5 feet lower than it is now, a second hearth at 12 feet 8 inches, and charcoal at 16 feet 3 inches.
Sections 6 and 7
Sections 6 and 7 are near each other and in the north branch of the main arroyo opposite Una Vida (fig. 1). The bedding is very irregular in this vicinity, and none of the layers listed is persistent. Section 6 has potsherds considered to be of Pueblo III type between 4 feet 6 inches, and 5 feet below the surface. Section 7 shows a very large hearth 8 feet from the surface.
Section 6
In north bank of north channel, near Una Vida.
Section 7
In south bank of north channel, 100 yards upstream from section 6.
Section 8
South bank of main arroyo 2 miles east of Wejegi and outside the area of our map.
Section 9
In arroyo of Rincon del Camino, about 300 feet south of the road and in the fan of the rincon.
Section not numbered
North bank of main arroyo west of 1924 dump. [South of the Wetherill corrals and 100 yards, more or less, west of the expedition camp.N. M. J.]
Section 15
In middle of buried channel, on south bank of main arroyo and 200 yards upstream from mouth of Rincon del Camino.
Section 17
At the mouth of Rincon del Camino a narrow point projects into the main arroyo from the north. On the east face of this point a well defined buried channel is exposed. Section 17 was measured in the middle of this exposure.
In 1922 Mr. Judd had dug a number of pits in the vicinity of Pueblo Bonito in order to obtain soil samples for analysis. None of these pits exceeded 10 feet in depth because that appeared to be well below the level of fields once cultivated by the villagers and subsequently overlain by post-Bonito alluvial deposits. Pit number 3, located in the plain between the expedition camp and the ruin, had been fenced and left open for possible further tests. When this pit was deepened at my suggestion in 1925 we were all surprised to find late Bonito potsherds at depths of 10 to 18 feet. This meant we were right in the middle of the buried channel. Some fragments showed the influence of contact with the Mesa Verde culture, thus further identifying the channel fill as contemporaneous with the last years of Pueblo Bonito or even later and, of course, much later in age than the main valley fill.

On this day in history:
April 3rd, 2003 | Torrie Wilson came to the ring to celebrate her Playboy cover and pictorial with a speech, but it was interrupted by Sable, who was making her return to the WWE after several years of absence. She said that there wasn't room on SmackDown for two Playboy Divas (if that were the case, these brands would have been split several times over by now), and alluded to the nature of their coming feud by giving Torrie a kiss.
What are your memories of this moment? Tell us in the comments!
Also occurring today in history:
* 4/03/95 – Alundra Blayze defeats Bull Nakano to win the WWF Women's Title.
* 4/03/05 – Trish Stratus defeats Christy Hemme (w/ Lita) to retain the Women's Title at WrestleMania 21.
* 4/03/11 – Trish Stratus, John Morrison & Snooki defeat Dolph Ziggler, Michelle McCool & Layla at WrestleMania 27.
Absolutely love this woman, so smart, so beautiful and just oh so sablicious lol
Hope she gets a hall of fame one day! Thanks for everything sable!
She was hot and talented, really miss her. If only we got to see her against (or at least involved with) Lita, Trish and Victoria
Sable is such an icon !! She will be a in the HOF real soon !!
I'm a fan of Sable.I could care less about backstage drama when I'm entertained. Same reason I loved Melina.
I beat every cougar, milf, and gmilf aspires to be just like this woman!
Sable was hot!!! But torrie vs dawn Marie was always my favorite torrie Wilson storyline
It's funny how in the 2002-2003 era of Smackdown divas that every woman was jealous of Torrie Wilson. Although, Sable came really close to equaling Torrie with her seductiveness that only an older woman would have;)
Also, it be funny if Sable came back again and said something like,"no wonder the fans don't care anymore you little girls don't know how to please a man. Let me show you all how a real woman gets down to business!"
Lmfao shameron lol
Like Maxine used to pick on AJ callin her a little girl doesn't compare to Maxine, a Real Woman ha!! Awesome!!
Sable is NOT a little girl ;)
This woman sets men, and women on fire!!
Yay…according to 24Wrestling.com….WWE is planning to add aj kaitlyn to the tag match and make it Winner take all….im fine if this doesn't happy but what evs lol
I'm not exited for that kind of news anymore after all they said, I won't have any hopes till i don't see it.
On a Unrelated note my girl kelly kelly is gonna be at wrestlecon this year & Maria will be there also
Ill never forget this day
My friends dad and brothers were over
We were quietly chillin eating pizza and drinking Pepsi, Torrie teasing the crowd.. And i mention "hey she kind is like Sable" ( we had watched some VHS PPV from blockbuster featuring Sable)
And we are all agreeing and RAWRRR!! WHIP!
I jump off my seat WOOOOOO!!! I spill the Pepsi and pizza IT'S SABLE!!!! :D
Sable looks tiny though but skankier than eer haha
Her promo rocks! I miss this woman thanks for everything Sable you were one of the BESt! Sunny can't hold a candle to u, and I mean her second run wasn't great but was really good
Love how uncomfortable she makes some men and women haha
The way she makes Torrie weird and poor Johs Matthews and the way she looks at people like her sexual apettite is Sablelicious and insatiable lmfao
Oh man! I'm overstimulated now XD
Brb ppl!!
I always look forward to your comments Ryan! I like to get into the mind of a mans man…. LOL I feel like the stuff you say is prob what my husband would say if I wasent around! Its funny :D
loved this moment, and i remember watching this moment and begin completely shocked and couldnt believe that Sable was back
but i think it also says something, when someone can return 4 years later and still have a reaction like that from the crowd,
yes sable wasnt the best in ring worker, but the storylines she was in, were always some of the best ones ,especially on her second run, her angle with Torrie Wilson, and my favorite Stephanie Mcmahon
i am really hoping for just an apperance from Sable this weekend, weither it just be in the audience at th HOF or anything
and it seems so crazy that, that was 10 years ago OMG, it doesnt seem like her return was that long ago :(
Yeah, I couldn't care about the measure of her talents or the rumoured difficult personality; Sable was a classic sex symbol and one of the WWE's best draws, male or female. She was great to watch and, in the end, that's all that really matters in wrestling.
I'm surprised WWE didn't induct Sable into the HOF this year given that they're working with her husband, Brock Lesnar. It seemed like good timing. Anyway, when Sable returned in 2003 I remember initially thinking it was an April Fools joke since the SmackDown taping occurred on April 1st (aired on the 3rd). I was so excited when it turned out to be true!
I love the positive comments on Sable
I was easily and still am easily entertained by her matches and segments
Specially her modern 2003 run!
Former WWF Women's Champion and def a WWE Legend!!
I love Sable she was not just a beauty but a prescense and had one dominant persona like none other. There's only one Sable, and no little girl can measure up to her haha
Love that woman! xD
Btw I often wonder what could of been for
Sable and Torrie where would of this ended? Where was the peak point going to be? Because after the bikini contest Sable was still at it before Torrie Nidia and Dawn joined forces to take on that freak manly Shaniqua, and Sable and Stephanie were then starting
Also Trish vs Sable was always my fantasy fued :)
I second that Trish vs Sable fantasy feud.
One of the greatest and most important moments in humanity's existence.
I just LOVE Sable! The woman is just incredibly sexy and her return was so unexpected; which what made it so memorable.
I'm glad her returned happened on Smackdown, as we got to see the Stephanie/Sable feud and the Torrie/Sable feud that led up to that very HOT HOT HOT Bikini Contest!
I gotta say. I'm looking forward to WWE this Sunday
Brock Lesnar vs Triple H
Both have families
The Lesnar Clan with Paul Heyman and The McMahon-Helmsley family
And the wildcard.. Sable
The woman who was a mega superstar in late 90s
The woman who sued WWE for sexual Harrassment, and would hop on any bandwagon during WWE.
Her return was to the disgust of Stephanie McMahon. The woman had previously sued for sexual Harrassment for millions. Vince however rehired her and it only took, according to Steph, "all it took for sable was to shake her fanny", and did he forget she again, sued them for, sexual Harrassment!!! Lol
Brock Paulie and Sable vs the McMahon-Helmsley clan this I hope it goes my way but I doubt it.. Brock has a huge hold on his wife Sable is hardly seen nowadays at all!! On UFC u rarely saw her but they don't even have Internet or TV!! Wow!
Still I'm wishing Sable comes back and Stephanie backs off
A Sable/Stephanie catfight Sunday would be Epic. Loved this feud. Their match on SD was good too.
I hated Sable back in the late 90's, but admit that when she returned and crashed Torrie's party, I marked out big time! :D
Love Torrie Wilson. It was great to see these two together because Sable was the reason I watched the WWF and Torrie was the reason I got back into watching the WWE in 2002
I remember reading the spoilers on owow.com when it was still around and thought it was a big lie to get me to watch the show LoL, oh to be young again. I tuned in and out came Sable, I loved it! I wish she would have been more eager to take bumps as she could have been even bigger than she was. I enjoyed this night, but the rest of her second run wasn't fun for me considering it was a lot of bikini contests and things of that nature. Her tiff with Stephanie was sort of fun.
I thought I was the only owow reader!
^ Hahaha. Same here!
LoL, I miss that site because of all the bio's and pictures!
My favorite Sable moment was still when she slapped Josh Matthews during her food fight with Stephanie on Smackdown. It still cracks me up to this day.
LmaO. I loved that slap to Josh.. He gets on my nerves.
I already went on a Sable rant so I won't go on another one. I will say that I do like her theme music.
No one cares Figgis, you're only invited to round out the numbers.

If some thing happens and you lose me, please don' think that' the end, come and find again.
If some thing happens and you lose me, please don' think that' the end, come and find again.
Missing you isn't the problem, it's wondering if you'll ever come back that's killing me.
Never long for anyone from the past. There is a reason why they never made it to your future.
Nothing hurts more then waiting since I don't even know what I'm waiting for anymore.
You never know what you have until you lose it, and once you lose it, you can never get it back.
If missing you is a sign you are falling in love….I MISS you endlessly..
I knew that looking back on the tears would make me laugh but i never knew that looking back on the laughs would bring tears.
I feel bad when you miss me, I feel sad when you don't.
Yesterday, I ask you out with my freinds because, I didn't know how to approach you in the right way. Today my heart is broken because you said no.
To me you are my rose; every day when I see a beatiful rose I think of you, and miss you, and hope to hold you in my arms.
