Hafted Drill. XCB-105-1538 400 BCE - 100 CE XCB-105 Adamagan, meaning "place of walrus hunters" in Aleut, marks the head of Morzhovoi Bay on the western Alaska Peninsula. This massive village boasts multiple occupations. At its peak from 400 BCE to 100 CE, it stood as the largest Arctic settlement with an estimated 1,000 inhabitants. Limited occupations are also dated at 2,200-1,700 BCE, 1,000-600 BCE, and 900-1,100 CE. The Western Alaska Peninsula artifacts were collected through research funded by NSF grants #9630072, #9814086, #9996372, #9996415, #1139266, and #1321411. H. Maschner led the investigation as Principal Investigator. These artifacts were scanned using either a Faro Edge Arm or a Minolta Vivid 9i scanner. They were then processed in Geomagic or Polyworks software. In Geomagic Wrap, 2-8 photos were used to create texture. The initial digitizing work was conducted at the IVL on Id. St. Univ.'s campus. Further processing and publication took place at Global Digital Heritage.
