Comments
In the dating lists from the Copenhagen Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory the locality is referred to as Baggården, but Engnæs is the only Palaeo-Eskimo site at the western end of Øvre Midsommersø and its co-ordinates suggest that the dated material must have been retrieved from Engnæs feature 4
