Crew of the 1990 field season at work washing, sorting, counting, and weighing archaeological remains obtained from surface collections, shovel tests, and 1 x 1 m. test pits.  These materials include stone tools and chipping debris, tiny potsherds, and fire-cracked rock.  Laboratory space is provided in the CMU Biological Station on the island.

Some images of the Archaeology Field School at work in 1990 on Site 20-CX-27.  This was a surface scatter of artifacts on a former beach level along the southeast shore of the island.  It was a Native American encampment probably occupied during very late prehistoric times and/or perhaps into an early period of encounters with settlers, traders, or missionaries of European origin.
