Neither here nor in any other stone walls that we saw were there any indications of any mud or other plaster coating on the stones.
On top of a knoll in the mountains south of Nacori, at an elevation of 4,800 feet, well preserved remains of this kind of dwelling were seen.

The house, consisting of but one room about ten feet square, was built of large blocks of lava.

The largest of these were eighteen inches long, and about half as thick, and as wide.

The walls measured about three feet in height and one foot and a half in thickness, and there was a sufficient amount of fallen stone debris near-by to admit of the walls having been once four or five feet high.

There were the traces of a doorway in the northwest corner of the building.
