Comments
DeJc-2, Wolf River burial: The remains of a 20-year-old male were disturbed during excavation of a construction pit. Both aboriginal artifacts and Euro-Canadian trade goods were associated with the remains, and its historic age is confirmed by a radiocarbon date on a fragment of leather. Faunal remains were represented by several artifacts, two modified accessory metapodials of moose, a worked beaver tooth, and a drilled ungulate metacarpal.
