Introduction

The Plaza was filled with brickfall (discussed under disaggregation) and then never reoccupied. As a result no fills or dumping occurred.

Fill, dumping, collapse

Although the area appears to go out of use after the brickfall with no structures or installations it is not reused for fills or dumping. This may be because the area was still considered part of the sacral complex even though it was no longer functioning as the Plaza.
