Bone Awl. XCB-105-3609. 400 BCE-100 CE XCB-105 Adamagan, a place of walrus hunters in Aleut, sits proudly at the head of Morzhovoi Bay on the western Alaska Peninsula. At its peak occupation from 400 BCE to 100 CE, this massive village boasted multiple occupations and stood as the largest Arctic village with approximately 1000 inhabitants. Evidence also suggests limited occupations dating back to 2200-1700 BCE, 1000-600 BCE, and 900-1100 CE. Western Alaska Peninsula artifacts are a direct result of extensive research conducted under grants NSF 9630072, NSF 9814086, NSF 9996372, NSF 9996415, NSF 1139266, and NSF 1321411. H. Maschner led this groundbreaking investigation as the Principal Investigator. The artifacts were meticulously scanned using either a Faro Edge Arm or a Minolta Vivid 9i, with subsequent processing completed in Geomagic or Polyworks. High-quality texture was achieved by utilizing 2-8 photographs per artifact within Geomagic Wrap. Original digitization took place at the IVL at Id. St. Univ., while subsequent processing and publication were carried out at Global Digital Heritage.
