Prior to the construction of the Interpretive Center, excavations revealed the location of over 80 structures and hundreds of pits and postholes. Careful analysis of the materials showed how this neighborhood changed from AD 1000-1200. House basins got shallower, the house got larger, and the arrangement of the changed from a linear pattern to clustering of houses around family courtyards. Storage changed from shared "granaries" to storage pits inside the houses, perhaps as resources became scarcer and there was less sharing.
