11. Ibid., 6-7. The specifications for construction of a headquarters office required that the "Pajauque (sic) earth (be) obtained within the monument," p. 28. All the other specifications required that the Pojuaque clay be obtained from an area designated by the custodian. Park archeologist William Sweetland had been grappling with deciphering the content of this mortar/plaster and its origin for years. "Pojuaque" is the name of a small village on the Rio Grande, between Bandelier and Santa Fe. The construction records reviewed for this document included information of transportation of materials from places like railheads and quarries; no information was uncovered during the course of research on transporting clay from Pojuaque. We concluded, then, that the term "Pojuaque" perhaps refers to the color of clay, or the method of application. After studying the soils in the present monument boundaries, Bill felt that it was probable that the "Pojuaque" clay came from a clay deposit approximately 300 yards west of the quarry site (present amphitheater). If this was the case, the clay would have been hauled down with the building stone and probably would not have been mentioned as a separate item on the tally sheets. Also, the monument custodian had a special use permit with the Forest Service, which had jurisdiction over that area of land at the time, for the quarry. A borrow pit could have fallen under the same permit, considering its similar nature.
