Hafted Biface XCB-003-516 is a site meticulously examined by A.P. McCartney in 1971. This site serves as the primary reference point for the Izembek Phase. A small, isolated village boasts a unique whalebone house and numerous artifacts remarkably similar to those discovered in the Bristol Bay region. It dates back approximately 1200-1350 CE. The Alaska Peninsula artifacts are showcased as a direct result of extensive research conducted under grants NSF 9630072, NSF 9814086, NSF 9996372, NSF 9996415, NSF 1139266, and NSF 1321411. H. Maschner is the principal investigator behind this groundbreaking research. These artifacts were meticulously scanned using either a Faro Edge Arm or a Minolta Vivid 9i. Advanced processing techniques were employed in Geomagic or Polyworks. A minimum of 2-8 high-quality photos were utilized to create textured models in Geomagic Wrap. The original digitizing work was conducted at the IVL, located within Idaho State University. Subsequent processing and publication were completed at Global Digital Heritage. McCartney's research is documented in his 1974 paper, Prehistoric Cultural Integration along the Alaska Peninsula, published in APUA Volume 16(1):59-84. Further information can be found in Maschner's Arctic Anthropology article, published on January 1, 2004, with a DOI of 10.1353/arc.2011.0007, specifically in volume 41, number 2, pages 98-111.
