Biface Fragment XCB-003-354\nXCB-003, or IZM-003, was thoroughly examined by A.P. McCartney in 1971. This site serves as the type-site for the Izembek Phase. The small village features a distinctive whalebone house and numerous artifacts similar to those found in the Bristol Bay region. Dating back approximately 1200-1350 CE. The Alaska Peninsula artifacts were collected as a result of extensive research conducted under grants NSF 9630072, NSF 9814086, NSF 9996372, NSF 9996415, NSF 1139266, and NSF 1321411. H. Maschner led the project as Principal Investigator. These artifacts were scanned using either a Faro Edge Arm or a Minolta Vivid 9i. Processing took place in Geomagic or Polyworks. Between 2-8 photos were utilized for texture in Geomagic Wrap. The original digitizing work was completed at the IVL at Id. St. Univ., while subsequent processing and publication were finished at Global Digital Heritage. McCartney, A.P. published Prehistoric Cultural Integration along the Alaska Peninsula in APUA 16(1):59-84 in 1974. Maschner's research can be found in Arctic Anthro., January 1, 2004 vol. 41 no. 2, pp. 98-111, with a DOI of 10.1353/arc.2011.0007.
