- Comments
- KiJi-3, Igluligardjuk: The site was briefly tested and described by Freuchen in 1923, and it consists of about 18 winter or autumn Thule house depressions in a cluster near the top of a gentle slope. GaK-2747 fits well within the Thule occupation. Because of the close proximity and similar construction of adjacent houses, the date can be safely applied to most if not all houses at the site. It also indicates contemporaneity with Kamarvik (LeHv-1) and Silumiut (KkJg-1).
