Canada / NU / KkHh-1 (T3 Native Point) / P-75
- Lab number
- P-75
- Material dated
- charred bone; os carbonisé
- Locality
- on a plateau 21 m high, 64 km south of Coral Harbour, on the southeastern coast of Southampton Island, Nunavut
- Map sheet
- 45 O/15
- Submitter
- H.B. Collins
- Date submitted
- October 10, 0097
- Measured Age
- 2508 ± 130
- Normalized Age
- 2668 ± 130
- δ13C (per mil)
- -15.0
- Significance
- Palaeoeskimo, Dorset; Paléoesquimau, Dorsétien
- Context
- trench A, square 1, level 2, 15 cm depth
- Associated taxa
- Mammalia: Phoca sp, Odobenus rosmarus, Erignathus barbatus, Alopex lagopus, Rangifer tarandus, Ursus maritimus
- Additional information
- Since whole bone was dated, presumably of marine origin, the correction for isotopic fractionation gives a minimum normalized age.
- Comments
- KkHh-1, T1: This site covers most of the plateau and is more than 8 hectares in extent. It represents the early Dorset period. Vertebrates were identified in the field and are strongly dominated by sea mammals.
