LU2-“broad-based and aquatic resources” is shown by a line of caught fish, shells and a collection of gathered nuts. LU2-“low-level food production” is represented by gazelle and wild gathered nuts, fruits, seeds and berries, and a small number of domesticated resources including deer and weedy/semi-domesticated pulses and cereals. LU2-“specialized fish production” is shown through ponded resources in which fish have been collected and placed for future use.
