Human: End Blade Tip. XCB-105-1981. 400 BCE - 100 CE XCB-105 Adamagan, named for its prime location as a hunting ground for walruses, marks the entrance to Morzhovoi Bay on the western Alaska Peninsula. This sprawling village boasted multiple occupations during its peak in 400 BCE - 100 CE, earning it the title of largest Arctic settlement with an estimated population of 1,000 people. Additional excavations uncovered limited evidence of earlier occupations dating back to 2,200-1,700 BCE, 1,000-600 BCE, and 900-1,100 CE. Research findings from the Western Alaska Peninsula are a direct result of grants issued by NSF, including NSF 9630072, NSF 9814086, NSF 9996372, NSF 9996415, NSF 1139266, and NSF 1321411. H. Maschner spearheaded this research effort as Principal Investigator. Artifacts were meticulously scanned using a Faro Edge Arm or Minolta Vivid 9i, with subsequent processing completed in Geomagic or Polyworks. High-quality textures were achieved by incorporating 2-8 photos in each Geomagic Wrap model. The original digitizing work was conducted at the IVL at Idah St Univ, while further analysis and publication were carried out at Global Digital Heritage.
