In certain walls is found evidence contradicting the theory that they were built by stamping caliche into bottomless baskets or boxes, as generally taught, and as indicated by the joints on the west side of the main ruin. At various places in the walls may still be seen masses of clay patted into shape by human hands, the imprints of CASA GRANDE RUIN, ARIZONA. 15 which are clear. Some of these masses, which are just large enough to have been handled by one workman, were evidently dumped on the ...wall and subsequently were not so stamped that, they lost their original shape. COMPOUND B. When work on it began Compound B consisted of two mounds resting on a platform, the bases around both mounds being so filled in with earth that the surrounding wall formed the edge of a plat- form or terrace. The most extensive of these inclosed mounds (Pyramid B) occupied the southwest corner of the platform. The largest and most massive (Pyramid A) has a flat top, from which the visitor can see, in clear weather, the cupola of the courthouse in Florence, 12 miles away.
