This massive village boasted multiple occupations when it was first occupied from 400 BCE-100 CE, making it the largest Arctic village with an estimated population of 1000 people.

Artifact scanning was done using Faro Edge Arm or Minolta Vivid 9i, while processing occurred in Geomagic or Polyworks software. Two to eight photos were utilized for texture creation in Geomagic Wrap. Digitizing work began at the IVL at Id. St. Univ., with subsequent processing and publication completed by Global Digital Heritage.
