The settlement area that encompasses all the refuse-generating activities that contribute to a single midden may be referred to as a midden's 'catchment.' Two related issues are explored with respect to the problem of measuring midden catchment: 1) the relation between settlement density, midden size, and distribution, and midden catchment; and 2) the relation between the heterogeneity of a midden's contents and its catchment
