Fish Tail Point. XCB-105-3060. Ancient Era, BCE-CE 400-100\nXCB-105 Adamagan, meaning "place of walrus hunters" in Aleut language, is situated at the entrance of Morzhovoi Bay, western Alaska Peninsula. This massive village supported multiple occupations when it was inhabited from BCE 400 to CE 100. At that time, it was the largest village in the Arctic region with an estimated population of one thousand people. Additional occupations have been dated to BCE 2200-1700, BCE 1000-600 and CE 900-1100.\nWestern Alaska Peninsula artifacts were obtained as a result of research conducted under grants NSF 9630072, NSF 9814086, NSF 9996372, NSF 9996415, NSF 1139266, NSF 1321411. H. Maschner served as Principal Investigator for this research. These artifacts were scanned using either a Faro Edge Arm or a Minolta Vivid 9i scanner. They were processed in Geomagic and Polyworks software packages. Two to eight photos were used to create texture models with Geomagic Wrap. The original digitizing work was performed at the IVL laboratory, located on the campus of Idaho State University. Further processing and publication were completed at Global Digital Heritage.
