Dorset Site Variation on the Southeast Coast of Baffin Island

ABSTRACT. The wide variation in Dorset residence structures may indicate seasonal site differences greater than a simple summer / winter dichotomy. This is further suggested by a comparison of selected stone tool frequencies from Dorset sites near Lake Harbour, N.W.T. Here manufacturing activities a...
