A ditch was formed along the palisade wall to give the settlers an advantage over anyone attacking them. Debris collected in the ditch after the settlers relocated, decomposing to form a dirt darker than the surrounding soil. Almost 300 years later, archaeologists found the long line of distinctive soil and recognized it as proof of the wall location. The palisade has now been partially reconstructed beside the stained dirt.
