Stemmed Biface, glassy basalt, Sanak Island, Alaska XFP-074-9 XFP-074 unfolds as a vast cluster of numerous small house depressions along Washwoman Creek. Strong evidence suggests that these houses were used during the summer months. Although undated, this site boasts multiple components and is heavily stratified in some areas. 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. Four to eight photos were employed for texture enhancement in Geomagic Wrap. The Sanak Island artifacts are presented as the culmination of research conducted under grants NSF 0326584, NSF 0508101, NSF 1139266, and NSF 1321411. H. Maschner serves as Principal Investigator. Original digitizing work was performed at the IVL at Idaho State University. Subsequent processing was completed at Global Digital Heritage. Fieldwork and analysis were conducted with the permission and collaboration of the Pauloff Harbor Tribe and the Sanak Corporation.
