Biface Fragment XCB-003-390 The site of XCB-003, or IZM-003, was thoroughly tested by A.P. McCartney in 1971. This location is the type-site for the Izembek Phase, boasting a small village with a distinctive whalebone house and many artifacts similar to those discovered in the Bristol Bay region. The dating of this site ranges from approximately 1200-1350 CE. The Alaska Peninsula artifacts were presented as a result of research conducted under grants NSF 9630072, NSF 9814086, NSF 9996372, NSF 9996415, NSF 1139266, and NSF 1321411. H. Maschner served as Principal Investigator for this project. The artifacts were scanned using either a Faro Edge Arm or a Minolta Vivid 9i. Processing was done in Geomagic or Polyworks, while texture was added using 2-8 photos in Geomagic Wrap. The original digitizing work took place at the IVL at Id St Univ, with subsequent processing and publication completed at Global Digital Heritage. McCartney's findings were published in APUA 16(1):59-84 in 1974 under the title Prehistoric Cultural Integration along the Alaska Peninsula. Additionally, H. Maschner contributed to Arctic Anthro, volume 41 number 2, dated January 1, 2004, with a publication titled doi: 10.1353/arc.2011.0007.
