Drill, Hot Springs Village, Port Moller, Alaska CAT# 77-47-U48. Okada excavations HHU, Level 4B. Hot Springs 2B. 500-800 CE. The massive village of Hot Springs sprawls along the shoreline of Port Moller on the southern Bering Sea's Alaska Peninsula side. Over a century ago, several teams began to uncover its secrets through excavation. The primary occupations span two distinct periods: from 2000 BCE to 1000 BCE and from 100 CE to 800 CE. A wide range of artifacts from the Hot Springs site is presented as a direct result of research conducted under grants NSF 0137756, NSF 1204020, NSF 1139266, and NSF 1321411. H. Maschner led this project as Principal Investigator. Initial digitization efforts took place at the IVL on Idaho State University's campus, while subsequent processing was completed by Global Digital Heritage.
