- Description:
- Condiment bottles in a variety of types, and none with labels were common. One kind consists of tall, thin colorless bottles with very skinny necks. Although unmarked, these shapes are typical of “salad oil” or “olive oil" bottles. Published marked examples originated in France during the late nineteenth century, with this bottle shape given in contemporary catalogues as a “Bordeaux Oil” shape.

- Description:
- The first known introduction of goats to the islands may have occurred as early as AD 1693. Currently naturalized on three islands and eradicated on another 11, goats are a highly problematic invasive. These feral goats were photographed in 2014 in the highlands above Hacienda La Tranquila, despite declarations that no wild goats were to be found on San Cristóbal.

- Description:
- Although impossible to substantiate, exotic rats may have been the earliest introduced alien on the islands. They could easily have been introduced as ships were careened and "smoked" on islands from early times. They are today particularly widespread, having invaded at least 36 islands where they prey on the eggs and young of reptiles and birds.

- Description:
- The artifact-rich lense of the Carpintero midden can be seen as its surface is exposed during excavation in 2014. Filled with discarded animal bones, glass bottles, and ceramics, artifact deposition was so dense, that recovered materials often exceeded the amount of associated soil by volume.

- Description:
- Hacienda goods were loaded onto ships via a large 100 m long wooden pier equipped with a rail system, and whose stone base can still be seen at the south end of the bay. Products were moved between the islands and mainland on two boats, the “Manuel J. Cobos” and “Josefina Cobos,” which were often the only available means for communication with the outside world. Bacalao refers to grouper, which was dried and exported to the mainland, especially for religious occasions.
