Description

Color: Blue; Brown; White A color polaroid photograph of the floor in the Tepee during the structure's restoration, 2 September 1979. At the lower center and left are two sections of paver removed, repaired and reset, while at the center right is an area where several pavers have been removed and the gap remains, while those pieces are restored. One brick lies on top of the floor at the far left edge. In the upper left is a broom, while at the right edge appear to be fragments of pavers. Curving across the top of the photo is the lower section of the wall, including some of the baseboard ceramic tiles. At the bottom of the object is an ink inscription reading "Same", indicating the inscription on item .712, which was "Teepee Floor-Typical Const. / 9/2/79." There does not appear to be any wear or damage to the artifact, which is in good condition. Number-Units: 1
