The first pass of the weft secured the toe, starting at the right edge with the sole down. On the last pass the weft was brought back forward and tied to the adjacent side-loop. Another essentially whole, but poorly preserved sandal was found in looter backdirt (PN 2.1). It measures about 12 cm wide and at least 19 cm long (originally there may have been another 2-3 cm of length to the heel). It has eight warps like the previous example, but in this case the interior ones each consist of combined pairs of two folded leaves (four elements); outside warps are like the previous example. The weft is identical to the other sandal, except there are only four passes; weft spacing is quite wide, being 4, 7, and 6 cm from toe to heel. Several single yucca leaves secured to the outer warps are remnants of ties used to fasten the sandal to a foot. A large heel fragment folded in half lengthwise came from intact early Archaic deposits below Feature 3 at the edge of a looter cut (PN 33.1). Nearly the complete width is preserved; one side selvage is essentially intact, but the other side Figure 2.17. Open-twined sandal from Atlatl Rock Cave. II.2.35 |
