Common Name: SLD9
SLD9 occurs on the east side of the road along the fire break and just before the Mission Rocks turnoff road. As with SLD7 this site has been damaged by recent construction activity for one of the stockpiles. A bulldozer has cleared the topsoil of the site, and thus removing part of the site. It is currently stockpiled with gravel presumably for the use of the road. A shell midden (P. perna and Patella spp.), a probable settlement, several pottery sherds, a lower grindstone, and two bones (a bovid rib and phalange) were recorded. The site has a potential deposit. The archaeological material appears to have a spatial component, i.e., material was recorded at different parts of the site. The site dates to the Late Iron Age or Historical Period.
