Hafted Knife. XCB-105-1966. BCE-100 CE XCB-105 Adamagan, meaning "place of walrus hunters" in Aleut, sits atop Morzhovoi Bay on the western Alaska Peninsula. This massive village boasts multiple occupations, earning it a place as the largest Arctic settlement with an estimated 1000 residents during its occupancy from 400 BCE to 100 CE. The site also reveals limited occupations spanning 2200-1700 BCE, 1000-600 BCE, and 900-1100 CE. Western Alaska Peninsula artifacts are showcased due to research grants NSF 9630072, NSF 9814086, NSF 9996372, NSF 9996415, NSF 1139266, and NSF 1321411. H. Maschner serves as the Principal Investigator behind this project. These artifacts were captured with either a Faro Edge Arm or a Minolta Vivid 9i scanner. Further processing occurred in Geomagic or Polyworks software, incorporating 2-8 photos for texture in Geomagic Wrap. Initial digitizing work took place at the IVL at Id. St. Univ., while subsequent processing and publication were completed at Global Digital Heritage.
