Description
The Ozette Village at Cape Alava on Washington State's Olympic Peninsula - buried by a mud slide, presumably about the time Columbus was voyaging to America - is one of the most completely preserved villages in the world. Green leaves five centuries old have been recovered along with many other perishable items. More than 30,000 artifacts of ancient Makah Indians have been unearthed since Dr. Richard Daugherty of Washington State University began excavation of the site in 1966. If the multitude of artifacts paints a big picture of Makah life at Cape Alava, the thousands of objects also tell thousands of separate stories. This book contains a handful of those stories.
