AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
Hall describes the archaeological survey he did one summer throughout northwest Alaska. He provides brief descriptions of the numerous sites from numerous time periods (Paleo-Arctic to historic period) he found. Only the archaeological data pertaining to the Late Tundra period were indexed for Outline of Cultural Materials (OCM) codes. The reader is advised to use caution when reading this material as it is not always clear which materials are Late Tundra.
