Information on extramural features, facilities, and space use is one of the largest current “data gaps” in Classic Mimbres archaeology. This paper fills in some of those gaps by providing descriptive information on adobe-lined pits associated with Classic Mimbres domestic courtyards and public plazas at the NAN Ruin, Grant County, New Mexico. Some pits retain dark ash and burned rock, while others were cleaned and filled in upon abandonment. Metric and distributional data are presented, the pits are described, and their functional role as firepits or adobe puddling pits is discussed
