Il existe peu d’analyses détaillées pour la majorité des sites qui composent les données archéologiques del’expédition du passage du Nord-Ouest de Franklin en 1845. Dans ce document, nous présentons les résultats de nouvelles enquêtes relatives à un site inuit (NgLj-9) situé à la baie d’Erebus de l’île King William, au Nunavut. Ce site renferme du matériel dérivé de l’expédition Franklin en 1845. L’histoire complexe de l’origine et de l’utilisation des artefacts trouvés au site de même que son lien avec les autres sites et événements liés à l’expédition Franklin sont révélés par le biais de l’analyse et del’intégration des données archéologiques, historiques et orales historiques. |
