- Comments
- HjCl-3, Okak 3: This semi-subterranean sod house was completely excavated. About 2-3% of the artifacts are Pre-Dorset and Middle Dorset tools that are considered to be intrusive into the predominantly Late Dorset assemblage. The house contained two mid-line hearths and a third hearth at the eastern edge of the mid-passage structure.
