Summary:Smiley Face on bone fragment, Hot Springs Village, Alaska Peninsula CAT# U2-994. This artifact is from the Okada Excavations, HHU2, House C. It is so bizarre that the excavator, Hiroaki Okada, did not believe it was real when he found it in the excavation. Dates to before 1000 BCE. The Hot Springs site is a massive village on the shore of Port Moller, on the Alaska Peninsula side of the southern Bering Sea. It was excavated by several different teams over the last 100 years. The main occupations are from 2000 BCE-1000 BCE, and from 100 CE to 800 CE. The Hot Springs artifacts are presented as a result of the research conducted under grants NSF 0137756, NSF 1204020, NSF 1139266, and NSF 1321411. H. Maschner, Principal Investigator.
