Izembek Point XCB-003-330 is a site thoroughly examined by A.P. McCartney in 1971. It serves as the definitive type-site for the Izembek Phase. This small village features an unusual whalebone house and numerous artifacts strikingly similar to those discovered in the Bristol Bay region. The site dates back approximately 1200-1350 CE. The Alaska Peninsula artifacts are presented as a 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 responsible for this research. The artifacts were scanned using either a Faro Edge Arm or a Minolta Vivid 9i. Subsequent processing was accomplished in Geomagic or Polyworks. A total of 2-8 photos were used to create texture in Geomagic Wrap. Original digitizing work took place at the IVL at Id. St. Univ., while subsequent processing and publication were completed at Global Digital Heritage. McCartney, A.P. conducted groundbreaking research published in 1974 titled Prehistoric Cultural Integration along the Alaska Peninsula, appearing in APUA 16(1):59-84.
